I have used this provider for more than 6 months

The comment above from June is from a staff member who threatened to hit one year olds because her son had gotten bitten twice and she posted on Facebook and social media pictures of drugs and indecent exposure. Dhs was involved and they decided to side with the daycare. If anyone shouldn’t be around kids it is this mother

DO NOT I MEAN DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE!!!!! They allow children to be physically assaulted and leave marks and do absolutely nothing about it. My child has bruises, bite marks and scratches everywhere. They also allow their employees to post videos of children in the daycare and use their phone on the clock. Definitely not an environment children should be in. Also lots and lots of drama. Smh

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

In most cases the provider’s direct number is included in their listing. When it is not, we list the number of the Child Care Licensing Program — you may call that number for more information, or search for the provider online.

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
