Yesterday CPS called to notify me that there was an incident at her daycare, where my daughter was found unsupervised at the pond along with some other preschoolers. This happened while she was supposed to be in the care of her preschool teachers at Learning to Know in Saratoga. They were outside and not paying attention to the kids (I heard they were on their phones)and a nearby resident saw them unsupervised by the water and thankfully reported it. I was also made aware by some other sources that the food that they have been serving is inedible, such as burnt black pizza and burnt blackened macaroni and cheese. When I called Learning to Know about the pond incident, they had confirmed my daughter was involved and said they had put a letter in her mailbox to explain all of this and thought that would be the appropriate way to let me know my daughter's life was in danger. She has had 3 different preschool teachers this year because the turnover rate is so high. They are so short staffed, that I question if they have the correct ratios of teachers to kids to run the daycare. I'm so upset with what happened and how the situation was handled. Also seeing pictures today of the food that is being served to the children makes me sick to my stomach. I'm sad that I have to pull my daughter out of the preschool program away from her friends that she loves. But I have to do what's best for her safety and her health. I'm not going to pay for a daycare that neglects their children and serves them disgusting food. I would strongly advise against bringing your kids to any of their locations with this owner that has allowed the Saratoga location to fall apart. Advice to parents looking for Daycare's: check out https://ocfs.ny.gov/main/childcare/ccfs_template.aspm and search the daycare you are interested in for violations. Also take a look at theirs before deciding to trust them with your kid. I've been questioning this daycare for the last few months and should have trusted my gut. I also heard that there was another incident with the same teacher and having the kids by the road unsupervised.
