What Parents Say
Children's Workshop Inc. has received mixed reviews with significant concerns about staff conduct. While some parents praise the care and staff dedication, multiple parents report serious incidents involving physical aggression by teachers toward children, unprofessional behavior, and inadequate disciplinary responses from management.
I didn’t want to put the 1 star but it’s the only way I could post my comment. My daughter went by to check availability for her 2 girls because the daycare is closer. Instead of being told if there was availability, she was asked if they had Behavorial problems and when she answered that they were very smart and sweet girls. She asked was there a deposit that needed to be paid for them to go on a waiting list and she said no we will give you a call. If that is not some type of judgement based on my daughter’s appearance, I don’t know what is. Whoever my daughter talked to, you will be held accountable for your actions. Maybe not to man, but judgement day is coming.
My 3 girls have been attending Children’s Workshop. 2 weeks ago today a teacher by the name of McKenzie grabbed my daughter by her arm, took her phone, and said “don’t look at me like that little girl.” When addressed I figured it would be handled because we had a previous situation about a teacher cursing at the children and when the video was sent to me by my daughter and I sent it to the director they did fire her. BUT this time it was different. They have continued to allow this girl to work there because her last day is tomorrow and she is going to school. So no disciplinary action was taken. When I went public about the situation online, I got a message from the director saying that making that post was against policy and that it resulted in “immediate dismissal.” I have tried to give this daycare chances, but after today that was it. I am a single mom and I work full time job so I settled for this daycare. Some of the workers up there my girls do speak highly of, but under no circumstances do you ever put your hands on a child. Especially not mine. They tried to press charges after I went public for harassment and threats, but none were made and the director would not let me speak to McKenzie because “I would act crazy.” Also she has withheld her last name from me because she “doesn’t feel comfortable giving me her last name because I’m angry.” I find that odd because she felt comfortable enough to employ her and let her be over my children, but not comfortable enough to tell me her whole name. I found that very odd and unprofessional. I could go on and on, but I’m not going to. I just would like to share my experience of this daycare with you so maybe I can stop it from happening to another child.
My niece was snatched by her arm at this daycare in a very aggressive manner, not only that, but one of the workers also cursed at her. That is very inappropriate, unprofessional, and so inconsiderate of this child’s feelings. No parent should have to pay someone to neglect their child.
Terrible place, please take your kids anywhere else. They are awful to our children and will most likely end up hurting your kids.
The absolute best daycare and staff! We love the Children’s Worshop!
