I have used this provider for more than 6 months
My 8 month old has been neglected and not cared for there. Wasn’t that bad until the director left in December. Never hired anyone. Not enough staff in infant room. Don’t follow state standards for care. Let baby feed them self laying down in crib and it’s againsf there own policy. Didn’t feed my baby for 6 hours and when I asked why for rude and said if all I do is complain to take her out

Horrible. Don't leave your child here. Left my six month old niece in a dirty diaper all day. Didn't feed her for 6 hours. When they did they left her in a crib to feed herself.

About the Provider
We have been in the Rising Sun area for over three decades. Our center is with in a few miles of I-95, yet located in a quiet country setting. We serve children ages 2 years to 5th grade. Our before and after school program is bused to Rising Sun Elementary School. Although, we are a large center we have a small family feel. Many of our staff have been with us for over 10 years and too love our center and the families we serve. Our center is a ministry of the Rising Sun Church of the Nazarene and holds a license from the state of Maryland. The mission of the Nazarene Daycare is to provide a safe, warm, nurturing, Christ-centered atmosphere in which children (age 2 – grade 5) are guided in paths that foster their educational, social, physical and spiritual development.
