I strongly urge parents to avoid A Child's View Daycare. My experience with this place has been beyond unacceptable and honestly terrifying as a parent.
The staff here are extremely unprofessional and many of them clearly should not be working with children. The owner, Cynthia, even admitted to me over the phone that she doesn't want certain employees working there but "has no choice" because she can't find anyone better. Hearing the owner speak that way about her own staff says everything you need to know about how this place is run.
One of the first issues we had was with a teacher named Amber. She allowed my son to call her "mom" multiple times and never corrected him until I personally walked in and heard it happening myself. On top of that, she would message me on Facebook outside of daycare hours saying how much she missed my son, which I found extremely inappropriate and unsettling.
Eventually my son was moved to another classroom with Caitlyn, and things did not improve. She constantly seemed distracted and unable to properly supervise the children. It's shocking to me that someone who struggles this much with basic supervision is trusted to watch toddlers.
The reason I am writing this review is because of the incident that made us immediately pull our child from this daycare. On Friday, March 6th, my two-year-old son broke his arm while at daycare. No one told me. Not a phone call, not a message, nothing. I only realized something was wrong later that night and into the next day when he continued favoring his arm. I had to reach out to the daycare myself the following day to ask if anything had happened.
Once I asked, the stories started changing. First I was told he "fell on the concrete." Then the story changed to him falling off the slide. Then the teacher said she actually wasn't sure what happened. How does a two-year-old break his arm in two places at daycare and no one knows what happened?
We took him to the emergency room and confirmed that his arm was indeed broken in two spots. The fact that no one noticed, no one reported it, and no one could give a clear answer about how it happened shows a shocking level of negligence.
This daycare is also extremely dirty and poorly managed. It feels like the only thing they care about is collecting tuition checks, not the safety or well-being of the children in their care.
After everything that happened, we immediately unenrolled our child. No parent should have to worry that their toddler could suffer a serious injury and the daycare staff either doesn't notice or doesn't bother to tell them. read more
