You have to hope you get the right teacher and site. The St. John's toddler room is not ran to state code and they use the same wash cloth to wipe all the kids down and dont wash hands before or after they eat; very poor infection control. The teacher and the assistant do not clean or disinfect appropriately. The teacher runs the room more like an in home daycare and is focused more on drama and gossip then the development of the children; very negative environment with favoritism where verbal, emotional, and mental abuse does take place and the teacher assistant is more focused on her own child then the children paying for services but I can say the main site, St.johns preschool and infant room is ran well and has great teachers who do care about the development of the children and follow state laws and infection control.
