Froggies day care and the owner, Dana have been a part of my life for 30 years. This is one of the best places in the entire country to send your child to. I still to this day, over 20 years later keep in contact with Dana and her Husband. The trust, loyalty, and education that I received from this place in my younger days has been the foundation to my life. There’s no other person or place that I would feel comfortable sending my child to than Froggies day care. I don’t have anything but great things to say. When it comes to sending your child to day care, yes it is a huge leap of faith and trust. But I can assure you that your child will be in good hands and will benefit from attending.

My name is Dana (not the owner) All three of my kids have gone to Dana. The youngest is still there. Dana loves her babies just like her own. I have complained about staff in the past just in passing to Dana and the next thing that employee was let go. Not sure how all theae reviews happen but that is not how it is everyday (from someone who goes there everyday) Yes most of the workers are ypung but the person in the infant room is a mother of 3 herself. My kids learned how to write there names and spell their colors ( andots of other things) before entering kindergsrten before. DANA is not the easiest person to get along with but if you want someone who will take care of your child then please give friggies a chance.

I spoke highly about Froggie's and now I'm very disappointed. My baby is not a bad baby. You have been in business for 22 + years and you tell me today that this will have to be her last day because your employee of 20 + years is about to quit, why? because my baby has been crying and waking all babies up who are in "schedule". 6 weeks to 4 months old babies are on their own schedule not on yours. They don't understand what that is YET! You have employees with children as old as mine working for you and are frustrated with all babies because there hormones are acting up. Other employees that are getting too old to watch babies this young who WE have been observing getting frustrated with other babies because they were crying just like Skyler. Also, you said you took no more than 5 babies and mine was last on the list a month and a half ago but you took a 6 week old baby this week? So your plan was to let us go?? You could at least given us a notice and been honest with us. You gave us no time to prepare. You just didn't want my daughter there. I feel like this is something personal... I am shocked!!! What daycare lets a baby go because they can't handle crying?? Arden Cahill can't handle dirty diapers and Froggie's can't handle a 4 month old baby cry. I don't even know who's worse anymore. I advise that you let parents know before they bring their children what you expect. No crying babies allowed!!! So that people are aware that Froggie's can't handle crying babies. Or maybe that there is a type of people you do not accept in your daycare. And one last thing, I advise that you pay close attention to your employees. Believe me when I say, even your shadow leaves when your in the dark. In other words don't always trust people because you've had them around for so many years.! Thank you for the little time tho...

During my tour of this facility I became concerned with the safety of the infants. When I first arrived no one is in the infant room or up front, someone could of easily stole a baby. Then when someone did come and take me into the infant room there were two babies under the age of 6 months who were in cribs being fed with their bottles propped up on pillows. A few days later I decided to look up state regulations for daycares and which states that bottles are never allowed to be propped up nor are babies supposed to be left unattended with bottles. When I informed the owner of what I saw who was not present at the time she replied with a text saying " ok I don't think bottles were propped up like you said but I think its best you go somewhere else too". One would think someone who owns a child care business would look into complaints about safety. She clearly does not care about children. Hopefully no infant chokes while eating due to her and her staffs negligence

The level of unprofessionalism here is horrifying. The owner, Dana Newsom, is an awful person. She's pushy, rude, dishonest and inappropriate. I've never come across anyone as unprofessional as her. Not to mention the fact that her employees are young and inattentive. Nobody at this daycare should be trusted with supervised visits with children, much less be allowed to work in and operate a childcare facility. I wish I could rate this business as no stars.
