So so so disgusted with this daycare. I worked in the childcare industry for over 6 years on and…read moreoff and am really disappointed by how my son was treated. Went off of a recommendation from a friend...I was put into a situation where I needed daycare in a short amount of time and this facility had an opening so I enrolled him against my better judgement..My son went there for 3 days ..he was not taken care of properly. The first day...I picked him up...the teacher that had him was sitting in a chair while there were babies and toddlers running all over the place half dressed..dirty...crying...my son is 15 months old...so I guess they combine infants and toddlers at the end of the day so my son's teacher could leave...I got him home and changed his diaper...when I took him that morning..he was 100% fine...i got him home and changed him...he had a diaper rash so bad his butt was bleeding...had dried poop on his bottom and in the diaper...I contacted the director and told her what i found, she said she was sorry and would make sure he was cleaned properly...i was lied to about what he ate and how his day went...i was first told he didnt eat well...and when I picked him up the "teacher" said he ate really good and had a great day...I said...thats not what I was told earlier when I called to check on him. I also packed a blanket and fitted sheet for his cot that was never used the 3 days he was there...so..my son slept with no blanket or sheet...second day...his father picked him up...so..im not sure what state he was in..dad said he seemed ok...last day...i walked in...same teacher...my son was screaming his head off along with another child and they were both sitting at the table...my son had a cup of milk sitting in front of him...WHICH WASNT EVEN HIS CUP...other children were in bouncers...swings and exersaucers CRYING...2 BABIES were crawling on the floor CRYING and she was sitting in the same chair..i said why is he sitting in the table...her reply was...he had a bad day and was throwing a fit.......so. i got him out and said to her...thats not what i was told when i called. I was told he had a great day...he was not "throwing a fit" she needs to be fired. Who says that? .there was a younger girl working in the room with her...she didnt know who i was and thought i had another child at the center...same room and acted like she was going to get that child ready to leave with me!!! I told her that child was not mine....that blew my mind...I got my son home....immediately changed him...he had a huge bite mark on his thigh...i was livid. No one told me crap about what happened. My protocol when i was a teacher..was...when a child got bit..i called the parent...let them know it happened and filled out an incident report for them to sign and have a copy of. Called rosie...nobody knew jack crap about what happened...no incident report...nothing...the center is dirty...my son was dirty when i picked him up. Do not send your small children here. I took him out of this place. I am so disgusted with the way things were handled.

I've never had a bad experience at this daycare! I love it and my kids have gone since they were…read moreinfants and now are school agers. If something did come up the teachers and directors always informed me and did what they could to fix the situation. The teachers are awesome having to put up with some of the horrible kids that I've seen while picking up my own children. I always see some sort of cleaning going on. They are extremely nice and always wish myself and my kids a good night. You want to go to daycare know that there is a high possibility that your child will be hurt.... It's daycare! Know that small mistakes will happen! Blame the state of Ohio for ratios. But like I said before the teachers and director always relayed any situation to me. My kids love it there even after 6 years!

My opinion of this daycare facility has changed drastically over the past few years, since it went…read moreunder new ownership. It saddens me it has come to this but the experience my son and family went through was detrimental enough that I need to do what I can to feel I've done my part to ensure no other family goes through it. You can have the best daycare teachers and directors, who may love your children like their own - but my family has unfortunately learned that if you have a bad daycare owner, what a huge impact it truly can have. I strongly urge any current or expectant parents to look in to your daycare owners' education and occupational background. If you see nothing about education or community or, even worse, only experience with financial planning, forecasting, portfolio analysis cost savings, control and auditing - please know their intentions are in the wrong place. They dont care about your family's relationship with the facility or even your child's well-being. You are a dollar sign. Having to part ways was heartbreaking because of the nearly decade-long relationships myself, husband, daughter and son had built with so many of the faculty and families. The bigger and quite frankly unacceptable issue we encountered, however, was blatant, documented lies on the part of the owner, that put our son's social and academic well-being in jeopardy. The change we have seen in my son's overall demeanor after only being at another school for a couple of weeks has been mind-blowing. I hate to shine a negative light on a place that meant so much to us for so long and still has many good people at it but, as a parent, I could not forgive myself if I knew I had an opportunity to prevent another child from being in this toxic environment and didn't do what I could the prevent it by sharing our experience.

I talked to 2 employees about my daughter doing a June month camp and 1 week in July since I had a vacation planned for July and both employees said that's ok we will charge you for that week in July. when I went to give my paperwork I forgot her name she told me I had to register again just for the July 1 week. I was like they didn't tell me that but she was like I am CEO that's the rule. while maybe explain the rule to your employees. I was saddened by how they handled people by watching them interact. There was a mother who came to drop off her kid and the CEO said she wouldn't be able to keep her son there that day because other kids were going field trip and his paperwork wasn't ready. The mother keeps saying your employee said my son would be able to join from today, and I have to go to work. The mother walked out and the CEO said I don't care. That was inconsiderate and rude. I felt like they wouldn't treat you nicely if you weren't back for regular daycare. I paid for the service! I will never put my kiddo there.
