I have used this provider for less than 6 months

I heard about Renee Powell thru word of mouth. This was my 1st experience with any daycare providers, being that I am a new mom of a 6 month old baby girl. Some things that she does that I didn’t appreciate or find professional: 

1. When asked for a copy of my contract that I signed she asked me, “What do you need a copy for?” I told her for my records but she has yet to give me a copy of the contract.

2. She fed my 4 month old daughter, at the time, an animal cracker without my permission and I pack my child’s food daily.

3. I asked her for a receipt for each time I payed her $180 per week. She said to me, “My other parents do not ask for receipts.”

4. She also kept my daughters toy and extra Gerber food cups. 

Needless to say, I will never recommend this lady to anyone. Her care for my daughter was ok, but her professionalism is awful. She has the worst attitude to be working around children. If you want your child to be held all day long and deal with Ms. Powell’s attitude, then call and enroll your child into her care.
