Thankfully, I was able to pull into the church parking lot and check it out. Madison United Methodist Church has set up this Book Exchange on the south side of the building. The single door is secured with a simple twist catch. Inside, two shelves of books that today included some religious reading, a few hardcovers and paperbacks that included reference, thrillers and even a law reference book. Interesting options. This library does not seem to be included in the Little Free Library database map. It is on the curb in front of the main entrance to the church.

My son has been going to kidspot for drop ins for over 5 years, since he was 9 months. We have…read moreadored many of the women who carrd for the children in such gentle and loving ways. I always felt comfortable leaving my child there. I've recommend this place to many, many folks. The staff has changed a lot in the past couple years. I've had some experiences with the new staff which have been less than pleasant recently. I had to ask one of the ladies please at least say hello to my son before spouting rules with the expectation of difficult behavior before he even walks in the door. This staff member left my child in, unattended, time out for so long he picked apart the chair she had set him in while she was busy changing diapers and feeding the small ones. She made me pay for the chair. I asked how many children they had thay day. She said 15 with 2 adults who where attending children and one who was stuck at the desk checking people in and out. I should have never went back. But, we had such good experience for so long I gave them the benefit of the doubt. Another staff member in particular, has been rude and disrespectful to both me and my child on more than one occasion before today. I have also observed her yelling at other children from the desk where she takes an unnecessarily long amount of time to check parents out, leaving the children to do what they will. In my experience she has taken 10 or more minutes to check me out while small children are left unattended, only to be yelled out from outside the room to stop doing whatever dangerous thing they are about to do, jump from a high toy or pieces of future, tackle another child, ect. Today she called me to come pick up my son because he was wrestling with another boy and it got out of hand. She admitted she was at the desk while this incident occurred. She also let me know the only other staff members who was there with the, at least 12+ small children, had been busy changing diapers. When I told her I felt the establishment was under staffed and leaving my 6 year old alone with a pile of other children was inappropriate and dangerous she told me "well dont bring him back" then proceeded to YELL at me in front of the children telling me I need to "do some parenting". I believe this woman is ill equipped to work with the public at all let alone small children. She is slow and is in visibly poor health, and appears to be medicated, which understandably makes her grumpy, however the neglect of the children and borderline abusive behavior from this person is not understandable and will not be forgotten. I will not be using this server ever again and neither should you.

During the work week my 16-month old goes to a daycare near my home, so my husband and I really try…read moreto keep her on nights and weekends. As she gets older it has become increasingly difficult to take her out to dinner with us, or even take her along to run errands. So, I found this drop off day care center across the street from Hanes mall which has really worked well for us. We've only used it twice (date nights for Valentine's day, and our anniversary), but we've been extremely pleased with the care our daughter has received. She has not cried either time when we dropped her off, which to me indicates that it is a very child friendly place where kids don't mind being. I'm not sure if it's busier during the earlier hours of the day, but when I dropped her off both times in the evening there were only a couple other children there. So, I decided to put some positive energy out there for this business so that more people use it, and so that (self-servingly), we can continue using it. This is a great place to use if: You work at or near the mall, and/or have a schedule that is not your typical 9:00-5:00, your regular day care is closed on a day that you still have to go to work, you want to run some errands around town and don't want to drag the kids along (I've decided that dragging kids around town borders on child and/or parent abuse depending on how you view the world), or you just want to go out to a nice restaurant with your significant other. The hours are: Monday - Thursday 9 AM - 10 PM Friday - Saturday 9 AM -12 PM The cost is: A one time registration fee of $20 $6/hour (very reasonable) Other info: There is no need to call ahead (but it might help the daycare if you do). You bring the food and snacks.
