Childcare Network #296

As a first time mom I just wanted to share my experience with this daycare. Immediately the first red flag for me should have been when I dropped my daughter off for her first day and the teacher had no idea she was getting a new student that day, it seems that this information was not relayed to her and right off the bat she did not seem too happy about this, since my daughter is only 15 months old I expected the daycare to be more communicative with me since this was my daughters first time every going to a daycare, however throughout the day I did not receive updates regarding my daughter, when I went to pick her up I expected her teacher to let me know how her first day went, how she behaved, how she did at nap time, or even if she ate her lunch or not, instead it felt as if I had to interrogate the teacher to get answers to all of these questions, she had no initiative AT ALL to let me know how my daughters first day went. Another instance was during my daughters second week here, her dad went to go pick her up and the kids were outside in the play area and he said he caught my daughter eating dirt right in front of the teacher and that the teacher wasn’t doing anything about it, when he told the director about this she said she would talk to the teacher about this and I’m not sure if she ever did. About 2 weeks ago my daughter went back to daycare for the last time because when she got home I noticed she had a bruise behind her ear and when I picked her up nobody mentioned anything to me about any incidents that happened during the day, I called the daycare the next day asking what had happened and was told I’d get a call back from the director which I never did, I had to call them again myself to ask for an update which was when the director said that she had asked the afternoon teacher if she saw anything happen and that she said no, but that she would ask the morning shift teacher the next day and would let me know, however I never got a call back regarding this. Overall I do not recommend this daycare specifically more for my daughters age range (15 months). They took no initiative at all since day one to be communicative, and I don’t believe the staff in the young toddlers classroom is fit to be working with young toddlers.

We are so thankful for child care network! Two of my kids go here and they absolutely love the activity. The teachers And staff are phenomenal. The Director Jessica got us in so quickly and we were so extremely lucky to be approved for the prek program. This place is by far the best daycare center in the area. Thank you guys for all that you do!

My twin daughters currently attend Pre-K here. They are in separate classes and all four of their teachers are wonderful. They come home every day letting me know what they've learned, showing me the projects they've worked on, and talking about their friends. My daughters have been attending this location since they were eight months old, all the way from the baby room now to pre-k. When it's time for them to go to kindergarten next year I don't know what we're going to do, we've had such an amazing experience with the teachers and staff here for the last four years!

Childcare Network has been amazing to my children. The teachers truly care for my child and I can see the difference since they have started. The Admin team has done a great job at answering any questions and concerns I may have.

The teachers and staff at childcare network 296 are so welcoming and kind. My son loves his pre-k teachers, and he adjusted to his new environment so much faster than previous childcare centers. We’re very happy with the education and care he’s receiving during the school day.
