Reviews
When I was initially looking for a daycare, I explained to the owner that my child is very premature & I was nervous about the whole daycare situation. She reassured me that her staff does individualized care planning per child. These past couple times I went to pick her up, my child was always missing her belongings. This daycare staff is very unresponsible & careless! There is no reason as to why another child’s binky was in my daughters mouth! I called the daycare immediately & asked to speak to the owner. She didn’t want to get on the phone, instead she has someone relaying messages back & forth. She said she was going to call me back & still never did! No apology, no nothing. Not to mention, it’s very unsettling when you’re calling trying to check on your child & no one at the daycare answers the phone! I would not recommend this daycare, the owner is very unprofessional! Too many things happen at this daycare & go unnoticed!
