Horrible horrible daycare... the staff is good... ESP Mr. Will! He is the saving grace as well as a few of the other workers... but it stops there! Your child does nothing but sit around and watch tv, they get no real learning curriculum m and the owner is so mean and rude... you don’t see her much but when you do I’m sure she will leave you feeling unpleasant... she has a horrible attitude and she is very very snobby and ignorant! I feel sorry for the staff... I removed my child about three months ago and I will never send my child again...

Before I volunteered at this place for a college credit class I was taking, I read the one review that was posted before me and I thought it couldn't be that bad. OMG it was. The staff were of no help. The children had no variety, everyday they did the same thing over and over and the parents were fooled into thinking there child was was learning. They would also wait until the parents were just about to pick up their children before they cleaned them up. My second week into volunteering I had to stop I got this HORRIBLE HORRIBLE cold that lasted TWO MONTHS. I had to go to the hospital and be put on antibiotics because it turned out to be a bronchial infection. My doctor even feared it spread to my lungs. THIS IS THE LAST PLACE TO SEND YOUR CHILD.
