Warner Play And Learn Center

Would just like to respond to the above "special needs Mother", we do our best to take care of all the children.  My staff is not required to have 2 years in college.  We did our best to take care of your child, but when it came to being violent and hurting the other children we had to protect them.  I told you that your child needed more one on one, and special care, from the start.  Let me see did you do a review on the other centers that had to also terminate your child.  WOW, R WE IN DENIAL...

So would love to hear some more reviews good or bad!!

Thanks,

I suggest you keep looking. This daycare has an inadaquate staff this center's employees seem underqualified. A staff that isn't educated (ideally, at least two years of college and a background in early childhood development),  not responsible, or enthusiastic, nor well prepared this staff won't provide the best care for your child.

My son was in this daycare and if you choose it I suggest you
Watch how the staff interacts with the children in their care. Two sure signs of a less-than-ideal situation are caregivers who speak to children only in baby talk or who yell or speak harshly to them. I've walked in more than once to
a few staff members that yell to get the child to do what they want.

Trust your instincts. When you tour this facility or picking up your child, watch carefully to see whether babies or children are tended to quickly when they cry or if the staff, overworked and overwhelmed, or lazy lets them wail. I've witnessed at this daycare children crying and other children tending to them while adults are standing around.

I've entered many times during naptime and the lullaby music was played extremely loud, so loud in fact that I had to leave the room to hear what the coordinator was saying to me. I love loud music, but not while children are sleeping. I voiced my concern about it and they told me that they must play it loudly for the children to sleep better. I myself do not like this at all but you can ask your pediatrician about it if you are unsure if you are fine with it or not.

They are clean! So if you are okay to being oblivious to the way things are done there and just want to drop your child off and pick back up and NOT ask any questions....This daycare is for you and yours!
