I have been in this facility several times and have watched the care takers and looked closely at the surroundings and have not seen any violations.
THE COMMENTOR WHO SAID THERE WERE DRUG ADDICTS WORKING THERE OBVISOUSLY WORKS FOR A COMPETING DAY CARE CENTER. OR WAS A PERSON WHO TOOK THEIR CHILD IN SICK AND WAS REFUSED ADMITANCE BECAUSE OF SAID SICK CHILD; TOLD TO RETURN WHEN WELL.
I know several of the staff personally and they are fine church going people and never had nor never would touch drugs. THEY TRUELY DO CARE FOR THOSE CHILDREN AND I HAVE SEEN THE HEARTBREAK WHEN A CHILD GETS TO THE AGE THE PARENTS NO LONGER FEEL THEY QUALIFY FOR DAY CARE.

First, Kurtain Klimbers staff is fingerprinted before they are hired. The baby rooms 2 teachers have been at Kurtain Klimbers for a combined total of 15years (10 yrs and 5 yrs.) as for sick children, they can only do so much when parents fail to inform them that their child is sick and have just gave them Tylenol to drop a fever, in which does not leave their system for 4 or so hours. Also parents who fail to pick up their child when they are sick. Lastly, if you had a concern or know these drug people personally I would think for the safety of other children as well as your own you would inform the director. People can not expect daycares to run at top notch if they are not told of the problems.

First off, I know a child that goes here and she is always sick afterwards. I dont know why they allow sick children to come in. That or they dont clean very well.

Also, I know some employees there personally. And I must say I would NEVER allow them to watch my children. One woman in particular works with the babies, I know for a fact she is a drug addict. Knowing they hire people like her is the prime reason I do NOT have my children in any daycare.
They should do background checks and drug tests when dealing with our children.
