I would give LifeSpring negative Stars if that was an option. Not only as an employer but also as a trusted center. I worked at Lifespring for less than a month and had bad experience after bad experience. On my first day I witnessed a teacher swing a two-year-old up by one arm in a forceful way to change a diaper. That same teacher later threw a ball and hit my child in the face with it. She didn't check on my child and it left a red mark on her face. When I confronted her she told me that I was being ridiculous. I told management immediately and nothing was done. I was told that she was just having a bad day and that the cameras couldn't catch it because of the angle. On 9-10-18 the floater teacher for the infant room, which I worked in, was making footprint art with a child using brown paint. The teacher said, " at least the brown paint doesn't stain like the black, you go home looking half n*****." I immediately told management again and again nothing was done. The other teacher in the infant room is a black woman, she was forced to continue to work with someone who expressed such hate, we all were. The director compared the racial slur to someone calling someone a "fat ass." I witnessed that same teacher forcefully shove pacificers into babies mouths, jerk them around and lose her cool at least once a day. Management knew about all of this. The teacher was still allowed to keep her job!! They will guarantee you 40 hours a week but then send everyone home except the favorites. Children are moved from room to room, you never know which teacher is going to be with your child. They mix all ages together in unsafe ways. It is the most unprofessional, hate-filled center I have ever experienced. If you have your children enrolled here I strongly suggest you find another place. read more
