This place is amazing. My son learns so much with his teachers. I’m an anxious, overprotective first time mom and they have even helped me learn ways to help him out at home. They’ve helped my baby discover that he loves to make art, they’ve taught him new words and phrases. If there’s something we’re working on at home, I let them know and they help me teach him. Usually he learns his cool new skills so much faster than before they were a part of our lives! I could brag about them all day. My baby is very standoffish towards most people, but when he sees his teachers he is all smiles and talkative. They’ve are part of a very small amount of people that I can actually leave him with, without him freaking out. I’m going to be a MESS when he ages out and we have to leave them. They are like a second family to my baby and I adore them!
I put my child here hoping they would keep my baby safe while I was ant work and they did everything but that. They kept my baby in a play pin and when I spoke up about it they accused my 1 year old of doing HORRENDOUS things. I asked them to play the camera back and show me because it was a serious allegation and I was terrified. They then told me their cameras only run 30 sec. at a time to motion movement and it coincidentally cut off right before he did what he was accused of and wouldn’t show me any video footage. When you speak up about your child’s well being and what’s going on they get upset and try push your child out by accusing them of being sick with no fever, just a runny nose, MULTIPLE TIMES. He’s a TEETHING BABY. But when another child attacked my baby and I didn’t find out about it until 8p.m. when I was giving him a bath and seen a chunk of his back got bit up and no explanation on where a two inch scratch mark on his came from. That’s fine right? “Kids will be kids.”. So much more has happened in the short amount of time my son was there but I’ll just leave this part here. Imagine your life being that boring and your head being that messed up, you decide to pick on children while they’re parent is at work just trying to make a living for they’re child. None of the directors ever answer and when they finally do they don’t care, the owner doesn’t care and no.. they will not fire or reprimand they’re staff because “All the other Mom’s love them.”
Well for starters , for this to be a daycare they quite frankly don’t do very well with kids ! My nephew is honestly the sweetest thing ever , but you know as 1+ year olds are they have there moments, but this “ daycare “ if that’s what you wanna call it is quite disturbing and has me and my family disgusted . For the very short period of time my nephew was at this place he has had nothing but issues , they claim that it’s “ his surroundings” but nothing they “claim “ he does at there daycare he never does at home , made very sad and scary accusations and for my sister being a first time mom gave her the biggest anxiety and panics for days after , they kept him in a playpen on multiple occasions when picking him up while all the other kids were out . Claimed him to be “aggressive” when he is playing with others . My sister spoke up about all of this and they isolated him and every chance they could he was “ sick “ and desperately needed picked up just for his family to come to get him and get racially questioned and for there to be nothing wrong . 97.3 isn’t a fever , runny noses also come from weather change . This is a sick excuse for a daycare and for someone to claim it to be safe , wouldn’t be the top 3 words to chose for this place . Absolutely sickening. Save yourself the trouble and try that other place on your list !!!!
So many things to say…children are treated not so great by staff here. My daughter went here and was told by the teacher she wasn’t allowed there with allergies that made her have a runny nose all because they were afraid to get sick but would allow kids to come in with lice and infect others. They called me several days in a row stating she had a fever when in fact she did not..also she is allowing her son who is on home detention in and out of these day cares to work in them and no one knows what felony he has to have him on and ankle monitor. All in all this isn’t a good place to have children. They are also on probation with the state due to not being up to standards with them.
I would refer this daycare to anyone that is looking for childcare. It's well kept and clean. I just moved to Indiana and was referred to Little Thinkers Daycare. I felt VERY comfortable leaving my kids at the daycare while I work. My oldest daughter never wants to leave when she is there. That should tell you a lot. Management is awesome too, by the way!
