Providers was great when she had a few children to care for, used to get weekly reports which stopped once she added way more kids then she can handle. My child is constantly coming home in a dirty diaper even though i have complained multiple times. DO NOT SEND your child to this daycare and will be calling state to ensure they know the provider is lying about time sheets saying she keeps kids all day when i have proof that i picked my child up early on certain days and she would still try to have me sign sheet to get paid full amount from dss. Will be calling state
