My son went here from October 2018 to January 2019, because the daycare he had been at since an infant closed down for renovations. In that short period of time my son went from loving school to crying almost every day because he didn't want to go. He reported that his teacher was always screaming at him, would not give him his snack and on two different occasions that she hit him; the second time being in his face. I talked to his teacher the first time and she assured me that she had not and that maybe it was when she walked him to time out. When my son told us that his teacher hit him in the face, we decided to not send him back. The director called the next week to see why he wasn't coming to school and I told her what my son said his teacher had done; she instantly dismissed the allegation by saying "O i know that didn't happen". Parents should feel safe and assured that their children are being cared for in their absence and not have to worry if someone is mistreating them.
