I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Terrible terrible place my child came home wet and poppy multiple times they put her shoes on the wrong feet. All they do is play. This is a good daycare if you want your kid to stay in the same place in development. They don’t teach the kids anything from what my child told me they barely feed them it’s literally finger sized bites and only 2/3 of whatever is served. They are very negative i always only see 1 adult with so many kids no help and they usually look like they struggle the kids don’t respect them i can’t to pick up my child and they were yelling at the daycare teacher
