I have used this provider for more than 6 months
Very unprofessional. My grandson was placed in a bathroom unattended for crying. My grandson was often yelled at and placed in a corner for extended period of time. When asked about the incident his teacher threatened to call the police on me. The staff have no early childhood education and have no clue about age appropriate behavior. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE. They do not implement the curriculum they say they have and are often out of child/adult ratio due to lack of staff.

I enjoy the environment, my child's teachers are amazing and in preschool they send home assignments for the children, like homework. My child has been there for one year and my child enjoys attending and learning. Thank you to the staff!

There is no curriculum for the children ages 2 and up during the summer they watch TV. High turn over rate for teachers, no stability never know who's taking care of your kids. Unorganized!! Lack of communication with parents.
