Stay away!!! Martha is very difficult, violates regulations, and should not be in business any longer. Would not recommend.

I have used this provider for less than 6 months

Martha is terribly difficult to work with and has unsafe practices. She does the bare minimum when it comes to childcare, does not focus her attention on the kids, and does not have their best interest in mind. We had a very difficult experience there with her and would not recommend at all.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Martha is great with the kids, very reliable, organized, clean. We were happy sending our 4 month old there, especially since there were only 3 other kids. She was always well fed and well taken care of.
That said, Martha is a difficult person to work with. She is not flexible and complains about a lot about little things. She also seems tired. So after 6 months our daughter is at another daycare.
