I am an employee
Don’t bring your kids here. So many things are wrong here. If any person walked in and inspected they would immediately be shut down

Do not work there. Without a doubt you WILL BE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF. Holds paychecks and will not pay you full hours sometimes. Won’t give proper raises for employees THAT HAVE BEEN THERE FOR YEARS! Too much to mention. Toxic environment. The only reason for one star is because I can’t give 0! Do not send your children there. Mice and their droppings in many places. Some mice even ran over children as they slept. Skimps on food for kids. Does not have age appropriate play area for school age kids and barely for the the ones that are there. Does bare minimum and sometimes not even that. Claims to be a certain kind of people but it’s all false. All that is wanted is your money. Too much to mention for this too.

I have used this provider for less than 6 months
I had a terrible experience at this daycare. The lead teacher in the infant room (Ella) is awful. The owner/director is not responsive to parent concerns.
