I have used this provider for less than 6 months

my experience with shooting stars was HORRIBLE! my son going on 3 years old. when I first toured this daycare the director seemed like a firm nice straight forward person an really seemed to care about the children. but my son has autism he tends to be a little more hyper than others but what 2 yr old boy isn't ? they placed my son who also had social speech delays. in a infant /1 yr old classroom they did not take care of my child it was plenty of time his diapers were full which also caused a altercation and his noise was constantly nasty as well as other children around him. not everyone working there was an employee but family member. that came to help out at the daycare. my son was released from the daycare for the reasoning being "THERE WAS A NEW KID COMING INTO THE 1 YR OLD CLASS AND MY SON WAS TECHNICALLY SUPPOSE TO GO INTO THE 2/3 YR OLD CLASS BUT BECAUSE HE WAS HYPER HE WAS BEING RELEASED THEY BASICALLY DIDNT CARE TO PUT ANY EFFORT INTO DEVELOPING MY SON ORHELPING SOCIALLY IF I WOULDVE KNOWN WHAT I KNOW NOW! I WOULDVE NEVER BROUGHT MY SON THROUGH THIS DAYCARE YOU CANT EVEN CONTACT THE DIRECTOR DIRECTLY SHE ONLY RESPONSE ON FACEBOOK MESSENGER AND NOT ONLY THAT SHE IS NEVER AT THE DAYCARE MY SON HAS SPEECH AND PLAY THERAPY AN IF YOU HAVE A CHILD WITH ANY TYPE OF SOCIAL DEVELOPE ISSUE BIG OR SMALL DONT GO TO SHOOTING STARS THEY DONT CARE FOR YOUR KIDS JUST THEIR JOB! THEY CLOCK IN AN CLOCK OUT! IF I CAN SAVE A PARENT I PRAY THSI REVIEW HELPS!!
