Who doesn’t speak to a 4 year old when they come in a classroom? Who doesn’t console a crying 4 year old? Who sits and eats while a child is crying in the corner? Who tells a mom that their 4 year old is fine only to go in the room and finds him crying by himself? Who is more interested in protocol than consoling a child who is in their care? I’m ashamed to say they do!

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

The daycare teachers are great! My grandson loved them. He started the pre-K program there and cries every morning. I’m not sure what the difference is (besides the teacher) but he is not happy. They do not say a word to home when he comes in(no good morning). He sits at his table and cries! My daughter went back this morning to check on him and the director told her he was fine! Well she lied!! When my daughter went in he was sitting in the corner crying while the teachers were eating their breakfast. Not any compassion with them them. In short. I wouldn’t leave my dog at this pre-K program!!!
