Not even sure why theres 1 star rating for this place. It needs to be ZERO for this place. I am INFURIATED. My God child attends this daycare 6 days out of the week and not once but TWICE he’s come home with bruises on his thighs. One near his genitals and now one on his outter thigh. There are clear bruises that look like FINGER PRINTS showing where it looks like someone is squeezing him. He is 1 year old. He cannot tell his mommy someone is hurting him at daycare. This is disgusting and I’ll be reporting this place.
