I have used this provider for less than 6 months

This is for Avon location !!!!!Susan the director is terrible . Talks to u like your a child . My daughter came home filthy , pen written on her hands and btw they were pictures so I know it wasn’t a 2 year old , only a teacher could have done that . They called me on a day saying my daughter had a 99 temp which I am very understanding and would never want my kid going sick so we picked her up immediately . I get a call from Susan stating why She wasn’t at school . Well hmm prob cause she doesnt feel well so me being responsible took her out. Now she calls and states why is she not here this week? Well I did notify the teacher the last day we were there that we are going down south . Now she is freaking out we need another Covid test ? Well guess what Susan first of all I’m down south in ct so u don’t need one but on another note don’t talk to me like a baby. You can talk to the babies like a baby but me the mother not acceptable . Long story short she will know longer be going there. U get what u pay for folks . Yes this place is cheap but it Def shows !
