Prattville Ymca Preschool & C.D.C.

I was told that the teacher and staff have worked with children with ADHD before and that my son would be welcomed and they’d be patient with any growing pains. In less than a month my son regressed in potty training, overall happiness, and based on their reports started being physically mean to other “friends”. After expressing concern about this and asking if he could change teachers, he never got another good report despite multiple times seeing the =) being crossed out by the staff and almost pages of complaints. I asked the director do the summer program/preschool directly what I could do about spending time at the location when off to observe and maybe help correcting any issue that arose she said I was welcome but that she was familiar with kids that have ADHD and that where she worked before they made sure they were “sedated” properly or they couldn’t remain there. I explained that he was waiting for an appointment for evaluation by a child psychologist, the same person said that if “he isn’t more sedated when he comes here he will be removed from the program”. This place seems okay for kids that do not have adhd or any issues like it but the fact the head of the program repeatedly said my son needed sedation to be allowed to stay was enough for me to seek other childcare and file a complaint with the appropriate government officials

Worth the wait!! My 3 year old loves going to ‘school’ every day! She really enjoys being there and loves her teachers and the friends she’s made. The staff is so professional and extremely nice and they make it comforting to know my child is in good hands. I have never had any doubts about this daycare and would recommend everyone to put their child at this daycare.
