Last year, I had to go into the daycare to provide services for a child. What I saw was insane…read more There was no schedule whatsoever. The owners were very rude, one even raised her voice at me for coming near lunch time (I came the same exact time the day before and they were not eating lunch at that time). I saw the owner pick a child up off of a nap time mat by her arm. They were not following staffing ratios whatsoever. They left a kid in the kitchen under a table and no one noticed until I pointed it out. They were not paying attention to what the children were eating and would tell parents they ate all of their lunch, meanwhile they hadn't ate anything. Thank goodness I only had to go 2 times. I would not recommend this place at all! The owner(s) were AWFUL.

My 4 year old twin boys attended this daycare for 5 months from April 2014-September 2014. At the…read moreend of August my son had a bruised chin, busted lip, and had bit halfway through his tongue. I never received a phone call, a letter in his backpack or an incident report until I asked for one which I received the following evening stating my son had "fell" off a bounce house on the playground. On September 16th the same son had unexplained red and purple bruises on both of his arms. I inquired about the bruises with the Director of the Daycare Vanessa and she said rudely told me she doesn't know how he received those bruises. I did not allow my sons to go to her daycare that day. Less then 12 hours later the Director Vanessa called me and left a voicemail on my cell phone and said that "kids get bumps and bruises and since you do not feel comfortable with having your children here, I suggest you find them another daycare". I am active duty military and my children have been in daycare for majority of their life. I would not recommend you to take your child to this facility. With the Director releasing my children from her daycare without further investigating the incident reassures me that she is guilty of knowing exactly what happened to my son. I have opened a case with the Department of Social Services to further investigate this facility for child neglect.
