WARNING- DO NOT TAKE YOUR CHILD/CHILDREN THERE. This is one of the worst daycares in Eastchicago, Indiana. The owner who name is Danielle Crossley, is not a good person and do not care about the kids, only about the money. I would work 8 hour shifts and my children would come home saying they are hungry all the times and I would feed them and they would ask for seconds because they were so hungry. She fed my kids can goods all the times and never fresh fruits and vegetables. She has an entire pantry of can goods. It dot so bad that she was feeding the kids powered milk. Really. The building that the daycare is in is very outdated, and the toys are very old. They do not sanitize the toys better yet anything there as well. Her one and only worker is extremely slouchy and would not wash the dishes with soap just plain water. She fed my kids out of a measuring cup, measuring their servings of food, and they were always hungry. When they asked for seconds they always told my kids and other kids at the daycare no. She lost alot of good workers due to lack of payments. She also lost alot of kids, including mines due to the lack of care she has for the kids and her profession. When my kids would come home and tell me things, I would call the owner and express my concerns and she would say my kids are liars. On weekends, she would feed my kids mcdonalds every Saturday because she is too lazy to give them a healthy meal. In the summer, she never took the kids no where not even field trips but went to Mexico to get a lap band. Also, she has a son that be with her. When they eat the slop at the daycare, she buy her son, whole pizzas, and other things in front of the daycare kids when they don't even like what they are eating. Before the other good daycare workers left because of her playing games with their money, they use to bring food from their home because they felt so bad for the kids. When my son was their the one and only employee she has asked my son to help her clean out the refrigerator and when he did it was old, a year old expired food in there and other rotten items. My daughter said everytime they opened the refrigerator she covered her nose. This is the worst daycare my children ever been to. I feel bad that my kids had to go through this. They are at a daycare that is 100% better now and will never endure this again
