I have used this provider for less than 6 months
The male instructor was being rough with a small boy inside the bathroom. I’m not sure if there are cameras there because of privacy, so definitely taking advantage of a blind spot.

About the Provider
I’d like to take this opportunity to welcome you to our school! My name is Suneeta and I am the director. I have a master’s degree in Child Development. I bring more than 20 years of experience as a teacher and manager. I love interacting with families and seeing the children’s smiling faces every day. There is nothing better than starting the morning with a hug from a child that enters our school or receiving countless pictures throughout the day.

The director immediately came into the classroom and asked Ms. Guiterrez to come out of the room to discuss this. The group had 9 two years old in care yesterday when this occurred. Ms. Guiterrez has been placed on administrative leave until the center decides whether to keep her as an employee. The director stated that the child did not cry after being pushed on the head and that there were no injuries sustained as a result of being pushed on the head. The parent of the child was informed and the parent asked that the director not discipline the teacher, that her child is a handful. The director plans to call child protective services. | |||
