This is the worst daycare I have ever seen. All I have ever seen the workers do is sit on there butts and do nothing they have cussed at the children and sit on there phones not supervising the kids. Which should be there #1 priority! One time I talked to the owner and she was so rude to me and told me to take my child and learn to be a parent. This is why I will never use this program and I will never recommend it. I hope this location gets shut down for good.everyone go to merrillville they actually watch our kids.
So far so good!
