I have toured this provider's facility, but have not used its services

Owner is unprofessional. Does not treat her employees well. Talks about parents in front of the children. The staff is in cell phones all day. The owner is never there and when she is she is to tired and on meds. Should not work with children.

Rebecca the owner should not be allowed to run a business. Terrible business practices, and is doped up on antianxiety meds.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My children have attended for several years. The owner and staff are warm and genuinely care for my children. It makes me feel good to know that my children feel comfortable and safe. When your kids ASK to go to daycare - you know they are happy being there. They work hard to give the kids a variety of activities and learning opportunities to keep them occupied and engaged during the summer program. I couldn’t ask for more.

I am the owner

Any review you see from a Sam Fransisco is a fake name. This man uses this to attack people who did not vote for Trump. I've contacted an attorney. Our business is great and has a great reputation.

I toured the facility Very nice place. But I met the owner and I was very disappointed So I looked into the owner And on her Facebook profile picture was a coffee mug that said I pretend coffee helps but I am still a b**** Sorry my children will not be going Here and I highly recommend to you not to Send your children here. Thanks for listening

I have used this provider for less than 6 months

The owner argued that pneumonia wasn't contagious when it's actually highly contagious so I immediately pulled my kids out I mean how safe are they really when the owner has the idea that pneumonia isn't contagious simply WOW

If you attempt a position at this facility, good luck to ya!. As a business, one would expect the professional who facilitated the business to behave as such. The experience I had with the behavior of this business owner was far from professional. One would expect the business owner to be truthful and forthcoming in there intent, this was not the case here. Also, it is common place for the potential employer to notify applicants on whether or not the business decides to hire the applicant, well not here! This business might be right up your ally if you are the WASP type, but I highly suggest you find another place of employment if your not. Judging from the treatment that befell me, if you don't fall into the WASP category your child will probably not be welcomed here, don't put your child in that environment, the 1950's are over, I guess certain businesses just can't face that.
