The truth is the teacher that works there is my daughter's mother I haven't seen my daughter in 6 months I call the daycare and her best friend is running the daycare Sherry I called to ask a question about my daughter I get hung up by the director because she don't like me and when I used to go there to listen to no strategy and kids were all over the place at the end of the day everyday and kids are tied down inside a cart waiting for the parents while cheriand Deseri Monte are acting like dirt in charge in big hot shots my daughter turned 3.the truth is I suffer with major depressive disorder Desiree told a lie and is too much of a coward to make it right she even put me out in the middle of the day on the streets of New Jersey knowing I had nowhere to go out in the cold I haven't seen my daughter since I don't even talk to my daughter on the phone what type of teacher is teaching these children because from what I'm gathering professors and scientists are warning people the first seven years of a child's life is the most important why would you let your children around 2 people Sherry what happened last Christmas didn't one of the Santa Claus was drunk and ran into the building
these kids are sitting in this cart with seat belts on and their kids are running around the schoolshe can dress my little girl up and do everything with her and I can't even say hi to her on her birthday and you want somebody like that teaching your child
somebody going to take the kids away from them and let them know what it's like to have nobody on the holidays and not let your kid call you on your birthday let's see you today because you have daycare teachers like Sherry and Desiree these kids don't learn respect just have belief system it's all about the iPad
why is Desiree Monte on the phone all day everyday she keeps it in her back pocket I don't think teachers are supposed to keep phones
