worst day care ever. Just disgusted with them. Working with the local news to do a segment with them. They are very short tempered. Have kids working there that are just worried about there phones and not to mention when I pick my son up he at times will be wearing the same diaper after being there for 7 hours. They dont care about the people only the money. STAY AWAY

What an amazing bunch of people running Great Expectations Child Care Center in West Seneca. They are so passionate about what they do and my children have never been happier going there.
