I have used this provider for more than 6 months

There are so many precious memories, beautiful attributes, and countless
blessings when I think of Ms. Betty and Mariah’s Christian preschool.
Ms. Betty treats my twins as her own. She has gone up and beyond to make sure they feel love, safety , and security in her care. She has helped them grow in many ways. There is not a teacher, Woman I know That i can trust with my babies like I trust ms Betty. I highly recommend Ms. Betty and her daycare facility to all, with the utmost love and care for your children when you are not there.
She was there for my children, weekdays, nights, as well as weekends and they were always taken well care of in her care. Til this day they come back and visit her.
I have never once had a bad experience or encounter with ms Betty or her daycare employees. Only good experiences. My Children’s needs were always met even beyond what was required. Ms betty also welcomed my older children during summertime care as well as my youngest with special need with the love, support, and care they needed as well. Mariah’s daycare was a second home for my children and they were always loved, comfortable and safe in their care. That’s what is most important for our children and as parents for us to be able to work and not worry for our children. This was the place I found peace in for my children and for myself while at work. Thank you Mariah’s, you have truly made a positive difference in our lives.

I am the owner

Mariah's Christian Preschool has been in business for 22 years and not once have we received complaints about child abuse and neglect like a lot of center have been on the news. It saddens me that disgruntled ex employees feel the need to bash businesses that are already trying to stay afloat due to Covid-19. God has blessed us to remain open during the entire pandemic with no Covid-19 cases in our facility. The employees that have left nasty reviews were not able to properly take care of someone's child. Their resumes say one thing they come in and they completely laissez-faire their job. Which, is unacceptable in our facility. We pride ourselves in giving each child the proper care and education needed to grow in today's world. Not one time has our staff member ever been accused of harassment and they have been employed here 13 years. That says a lot about a person working with children and all women staff. But, of course when you have nothing to use to hurt someone you go for the next thing which is lies and deceit. I pray each person up here that left a negative review accomplishes everything they want to accomplish and be successful in what ever endeavor comes their way. They just could not do it here in our facility with the work ethic that they had. I hope this reviews helps some of you and that you will come visit us for yourself and make your own judgment of how wonderful we are. GOD BLESS!!!

I have used this provider for less than 6 months

This “child care” facility is 100 percent unprofessional. First off, this a at-home, we do as we please type of facility. Secondly,I was hired as an assistant teacher but ended up being the lead teacher. They were nice until I realized they were not following NC child care guidelines, that’s when they became rude.They have NO curriculum or structure. The owner was very rude and would threaten the children when they would simply be playing like children. Also, the director would baby certaim children they she personally knew and be nasty and disrespectful to others.They had 1,2,3&4 year olds in a small room. And 5-12 years old all together in another room, the children where not allowed to freely play; they had to be quiet and play at a table. When received my last check I noticed that there was almost 13.5 hours missing off of my check. Do not send your children here if you want them to have a good sense of learning in the crucial years of their lives.
