Capitol Campus Child Care Center (5C's Child Care Centers)

The first eight months of our experience at 5c’s was great. During this time the director that had been at the center 20 years retired and in April they hired Marianne; who is inept, deceitful, and overwhelmed.

When our daughter moved up to the next class, Pre-k with Lori, she was hurt almost daily. There was a severe injury on her hip that a teacher cleaned and bandaged yet we were never told about. When I wrote Marianne, the director, angry about this she told me she was out for her birthday the next day and would get back to me next week. My daughter, who has a small speech delay was also bullied and called stupid and is now in therapy due to the experience. Her numerous injuries in this class were mainly at the hands of the other children. We never once saw Lori, the preschool teacher STAND UP. She sits in a chair and "directs" her assistants to run the class. From preschool to Pre-k, the artwork our daughter brought home also decreased by about 75%, they let the children run wild in this class.

My husband and I went from volunteering with the school and bringing appreciation gifts to our first class (preschool) team, to pulling our child out, filing a formal complaint with the state and seeking therapy after three weeks in Pre-K. Our complaint with WA State is the second one 5c's has gotten since Marianne started.

Please avoid this center at all costs, for what they charge…you should feel safe leaving your child with them.
