Reviews
Too bad bordy can’t tell the truth. This is a review from a fired employee. None of bordy’s Review is true.
I love this daycare! My daughter has been going here since she was 6 months old and she's almost 3. She learns so much stuff while at daycare. I recommend this daycare to all my friends and family members with children.
Ownership is very poor the preschool lead teacher dose nothing but screams at the kids the one school age teacher dose not pay attention to the kids plays on his cell phone and don't get fired cause he is the owners son one of the toddler curses at the children several times preschool teacher is late every day and owner is ok with it school age teacher steals off the kids and teachers DO NOT DRESS IN WORK CLOTHS WEARS CLOTHS THAT DONT FIT AND SHOWS WAY TO MUCH OF THEIR BODY AROUND KIDS AND OLDER SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN and ownership and all teachers do not care about the school age group and they are fed the same thing every week and on many times they where given old and out dated food and had many times rats around the food and bats around the food and the director and church brings dogs in and just legs any one in who rings the bell so this is a very unsafe place for children and all ownership is worried about is the money
