I have used this provider for less than 6 months

Most disgusting child care center. The staff are mean, your not supposed to have an opinion. Grandson would have an inflamed diaper rash weekly from there. Empty, used bottles under cabinets, in child's reach.they should be closed down

Smelled like old urine. When I went to pick up my grandson, there were several unattended screaming kids. Only one daycare worker to about 15 children (2 year olds). DO NOT recommend. I am considering calling heath authorities it appeared that dirty. For the price they charge on a weekly basis, not including supplies, i am appalled. I will go somewhere else-- you should too. No Facebook page that is updated to communicate with parents or grandparents. No website. No email listed. Should have all been a clue to a poorly run establishment that has zero on line presence..

I won't recommend this daycare to anyone. There are way too many kids per number of staff. The bathrooms are unclean and teachers use yelling as a main form of discipline.
