I am an employee

This daycare is not only a horrible place to work but the people that work there are completely lazy and could care less about the children's well being. they are more worried bout their social lives and what they are going to do when they get off. Also the owner of the daycare is a completely greedy woman. All she wants is a check and to get by with doing as little as possible as far as the upkeep is concerned. I worked there for 2 years and in that time i made 7.25 an hour with no increase in pay and no benefits. Overall my experience with Playland was horrible and i wouldn't recommend it to anyone as a daycare or a place of employment.
