I have used this provider for less than 6 months

I used caroline for about 4 months and it just progressivley kept getting worse. I would bring my sons bottles full of milk for the day and she would leave them out in the hot sun to curdle. Also one day she sent all his bottles home full so i dont know what he drank that day. She would send him home in other kids clothes and his wouldnt be returned to me, sometimes i never got his bottles back either. She has used other kids diaper rash cream on him which made him have a worse diaper rash. Also went there one day when she was suppose to open at 7:30 and she didnt answer the door. Very unprofessional. I wouldnt trust my kid here which is why i pulled him out he wasnt getting the care he deserved.

I have used this provider for less than 6 months

The lady who runs this daycare is very strange. She does not answer the phone. The caller is unable to leave messages. When you go to visit she runs inside her house and talks to you through an open window. I do not feel children would be safe in her care. I was told that her hours were 6-6. On the first day that Caroline worked for me she told me that she would not be able to work Mondays and she would be closing earlier than 6pm. She said her mother helped her but I never saw this woman. Very strange lady. Does not seem of sound mind. No one should leave children with her. I only left my child there for one day . I asked for my child’s belongings back and when I went to retrieve them she had left them outside and it had rained. Pack n play and bouncy seat were ruined.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

In most cases the provider’s direct number is included in their listing. When it is not, we list the number of the Child Care Licensing Program — you may call that number for more information, or search for the provider online.

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
