Terrible business. I know of many employees who have said they went many days with no breaks with the boss claiming "nap time is break enough" when that is nothing farther from the truth and it is very illegal. And when she didn't want to pay them for that hour she would make them clock out and stay working again claiming that they got enough of a break. it is very disrespectful. lucindas review seems very true considering what i've heard about this daycare. I hope anyone who decides to work here or enroll here knows what they are getting themselves into. good luck.
Awesome Place! I am sorry for my friend Lucinda who does not know what she is talking about she clearly has misconstrued information of what happened at my child's facility.
I am very concerned that after this daycare was reported for having its beds in the babies and toddler rooms too close that the owner stated she was very upset that someone had reported her and retaliated against the parents by turning off her advertised webcams and proceeded to punish the parents until she found out who had reported her. It has made me worry that she has something to hide, she was in the wrong and instead of making it right, she has acted out like a teenager and insists upon punishment.
