I have used this provider for more than 6 months

while both my children attended this daycare, and i was extremely happy with them for many years. this past year i cannot say the same. the teaching staff has went through a ton of changes, none of which seem very good. the director has always rectified any situation until recently. my child has been humiliated by the teachers, they used food as punishment also. which is against everything any early learning teacher is taught. also they have issues keeping students belongings in track. i pulled my daughter out after this last incident, and they tried to give me a blanket that isn't even hers. this was after the new teacher failed to write an incident report for my daughters lip that was busted open. but within a week wrote one for getting a pillow thrown at her. seems bleeding is not such a big deal as a pillow. huh . when i brought my concerns to the director this time, i got a lot of nothing. also, keep in mind, they pressured me into bringing my child for hours on end, even when i wasn't working. to suit their needs. this center does not care for children anymore, they care about profits. damn shame too.
