I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Unprofessional, she will lie to you and tell you about all this experience she has. She gossips about the parents and the children. She talks on the phone all day while the kids run around. If you have children that have delays don’t send them there she will treat them differently from everybody else. She’s older & can’t handle kids but keeps a house of them to collect the money. Yes it’s affordable. But quality over quantity. I’ve seen so many people come and go & trust me it’s for a reason. This lady asked me to see if I can bring him later because “he’s too much “ she wants to get paid but doesn’t want to do the work. It makes no sense. & when I start challenging her and asking questions , she tells me I have 3 days to find another provider. How illegal. Who does that ? I wasn’t disrespectful to this lady but that was the most disrespectful thing you can do to a mother with a 3 year old. I would NEVER recommend anyone to bring their child here. They won’t learn anything , she will complain about everything.

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

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