Also,Staff are told to pump breast milk in the bathroom which is illegal and unsanitary. This encounter was recorded and I will be perusing a lawsuit against good Shepard daycare. If management is uneducated which they are and pretend to be, they should learn Indiana state laws. A job is ENTITLED to provide a clean,sanitary,PRIVATE place for pumping in which a bathroom,fireside room (employee break room) or child’s class room which were all provided are not sanitary nor appropriate.

Good Shepherd Daycare has been amazing with our now 2 1/2 year old! We have had our son enrolled since July 2023, and we couldn’t think of a better place to have our son day to day. We know he is in good hands no matter which staff member is tending to him.

My 3 year old has been coming here since he was 10 weeks old. For the most part, we are pleased with his care and know he is in good hands. He is so loved at his daycare and we wouldn’t send him anywhere else!

The only people getting any type of pay here are the business managers. The teachers are just random volunteers from their congregation. This is just another example of the church getting away with subpar business practices.
