This review is long over due. I have been with this daycare since November 2017—my boy started going with them when he was just 6 weeks old. I had to go back to work, and this was the closest building to my work. They are now in a different building. Although it is further from my work, this building is a lot bigger. I went to their open house and I was really surprised at the big classrooms. Now my son and the other kids have a lot of room to run around and play in. They also have a playground in the back that they were fixing up. They have a kitchen also and they have gates on both sides to keep the kids out. They have really taken a lot of steps to child/toddler proof the place as well. It seems that the staff here genuinely care about the kids. I feel that the staff do the best they can to meet their needs. When my son was around 6-8 weeks, I would come to pick him up at 5:30 pm and would find them holding my son and he would be happy. On holidays, like before Christmas, they would make little gift bags for the kids. My son still has his little rattle from 2 years ago because he loves it so much. Sometimes they will have the kids do crafts. This Mother’s Day they presented me with a painted handprint of my son’s. How thoughtful! When I find the right frame, I’m going to hang it up. Another time I forgot to put a meal in my son’s bag. I only realized it when I was at work for a while. I thought about going to a store at lunch and then dropping off the meal. I contacted the daycare to let them know I may have forgotten to put in a meal and they told me that they keep back-ups, so I don’t have to go to the store and all that. I’m glad they did this because it took a lot of pressure off. My son wouldn’t go hungry. I found the staff very accommodating and they have helped us out when they were transitioning into this new building. It seems that they are always making improvements to the building as well. I feel that my son is safe with them.
This Daycare is the most horrible daycare my daughter and I have ever experienced. It is a family daycare(husband and wife) which is not a problem but they run this facility like it’s their home. The door bell is broken, therefore you have to call to gain access to your child and if they answer the phone. The parents are frowned upon if their phone is dead or don’t have one. Not having the ability to gain access to my child immediately did not sit well with me. The cameras are also down. So I worried about her well being all the time( I didn’t find this out until after I was registered) They don’t have a kitchen, which is unbelievable and they don’t notify you about that until all paperwork and registration is done which is very under handed. Not only do parents have to provide food, the parent is responsible for writing the child’s name and date on every single piece of food everyday as if they are on the roster so that the facility can pass inspection. The staff is very lazy. Kids are also not allowed certain foods, to avoid having to clean up. The facility is extremely dirty. Not only did my child receive pink eye and other infections, she would come home dirty. I thought she went outside but later found out that her brand new white sneakers were black she was playing on the carpet, which proved to me that this facility is not as cleaned as it should be. When my daughter got the sick the wife called my job and talked very rude to my staff because I was busy. When I called back her word were, “ your daughter is sick and you have one hour to come get her and if you are not here within that hour, I will call cps!” I was mortified. The husband who looks like he just got out of prison is very disrespectful to women. Everytime he comes to the door he’s always angry. Everytime my daughter saw him she would cry.He got on the defensive and yelled at me because I explained to his wife that for a few days I noticed that my daughter cries when I drop her off. This was a concern because she didn’t do that prior. He cut me off from further speaking and his wife off from answering and told me that I need to look at my child and not the daycare and that he is sick of ppl questioning his wife. My daughter is two years old and can’t speak up for herself. He just didn’t understand that. I later found out that he was her new teacher because the other women had quit. I didn’t want him dealing with my daughter at all. She was afraid of him. My child was only there for one month. I chose this daycare because it fit my schedule, I work nights and they claimed that they open on Saturday which I later found out that it’s when they feel like it. In every situation I tried to look at the cup half full instead of empty. I couldn’t bare it anymore. I removed my daughter after finding a more professional daycare. I do not recommend this childcare facility to anyone.
