What Parents Say
Barton's Nursery School receives mixed reviews with stark contrasts. Five parents gave 5-star ratings praising cleanliness, responsive staff, caring environment, and children's enthusiasm. However, two 1-star reviews describe serious concerns including inadequate nutrition, confinement practices, physical discipline by staff, and alleged emotional abuse.
I loved this place for my son (1yo to 3yo). It was always clean, the staff gave me the rundown on how his day was as soon as I'd ask. They were always kind and caring and if anything went wrong (he spiked a surprise fever one day, another day he cut his chin open on the playground) we were alerted ASAP. I would definitely recommend them!
I used bartons when my kids were younger. I was a single mom with limited options and it was convenient. My biggest regret was not taking them out of there sooner. For starters, most meals consisted of noodles and hot dogs which I'm sure is illegal. They would lock all it bigger kids in a room after lunch and make them watch TV. If the kids squirmed around or got up they were told to turn around and watch TV. The last straw for me is when one of the workers slapped my daughter in her face and then let her play with her phone afterwords in hopes my daughter wouldn't tell me. Luckily I found out from a friend who's kids also went there. After having my toddler in a decent daycare it breaks my heart that I had my older kids in that place for as long as I did. A couple other things to mention, when I would walk in to sign my kids out I would constantly catch workers giving the kids the evil stare down. The kids would look terrified. They were couped up all day in that little room with no windows or fresh air and it would stink 9 times out of 10.
There are Abusive child care workers at this day care . A older lady with “white hair”, as my child states would grab my son by his ear and tell him she hated him when he was 3 years old !! When I complained about it to other staff members they told me they have issues with that co worker and get complaints all the time ?!?. I took my kids out of that place immediately. It breaks my heart that there are child care providers like that in the world.
My daughter loves it there! She's always exited to go. The staff is very friendly and helpful with everything.
I love how good they were to my 1st child who attended from a 1 year old to 3 year old. I will be bringing in my newborn soon.
