A daycare with WIC office inside. WIC side is unorganized. Everytime I go they call me late when I arrive for my appointment on time. Also when I call to speak to WIC they’re either not available or on lunch for a long time. Yesterday I tried calling for a whole hour, no answer.

Please be aware that the teachers at the children friend in Hartford avenue neglect children's health safety, they will not respect your request on putting your child’s hat and scarf while being outside in the freezing cold, my child has came home sick various times due to this negligence. I had to pull my child from this center due to the fact!!The staff seem to only care about their paycheck and not the children. I would look into another care center!!!

Always on lunch break! I been trying to get in contact for two weeks just for the operator to try and patch me in and they’re always at lunch. It’s like going in circles
