When looking into daycare for my child, I researched this one. On several occasions, I've heard children being yelled at by employees/owners or taunted by other children with minimal to no staff intervention. Upon further investigation, I've driven past the facility on several occasions late at night, after 11pm, and saw adults and children hanging out on furniture on the front porch, or children running up and down the street. This went on for extended periods of time as on my return trip home, I'd still see them, hours later. Makes me question 1) why they would have small children up so late, 2) the alertness of the owners on the next business day, 3) the respect they have for their neighbors.
Very unprofessional business. Don't send your kids there.
