The Kid City program is safe & fun, & our two year daughter loves going -- happily waves "bye bye" to us every Sunday, & always comes home singing songs from their time of worship. Pastors Stuart & April truly care about who you are & what your story is & the direction your life is headed. City Light is about more than just "filling sits" -- it's a community. They even have dinner parties throughout the week, to just get to together & chat on a deeper level. :) They just launched in January & they are actively growing -- & I can speak for them, when I say, we'd love to have you visit us!

Yikes! I went by myself a week ago to check this church out, and while I was impressed with the…read morehospitality, I was discouraged by the pastor, and lack of biblically based sermons. Although everyone was welcoming and kind, when talking with the pastor, his eyes seemed to glaze over as he was giving me his welcome speech. It seemed a bit rehearsed, and like he was trying to be Steven Furtik. In addition, when listening to his sermons, it was evident that this pastor has no biblical teaching, hasn't attended any sort of seminary and therefore quite a bit of what he was saying wasn't connected together, was based on what old churches have said in the past, and the scripture presented didn't seem to match up to what was being said. I would check out another church that seems to have a multitude of biblically sound leaders and a responsive congregation.

We also loved Randa and Ashley while they were still there and felt the same about them. However, there are two other staff members that are harsh with the children. I have witnessed children being yelled at by one teacher on many occasions. I brought this up and it was never resolved. The staff are not treated well. I've been told by staff that they have to chase their paychecks. They also are not paid a living wage even though the tuition rate for infants has gone up more than 50% in the past two years. Other daycares charging the same price pay their staff $15 an hour plus benefits. Some full time teachers here are paid under $10! I feel strongly that paying the caretakers for my child a fair wage and paying them on time every pay period is critical and a basic benefit, which unfortunately is not delivered here. Perhaps in part due to teacher turnover (quitting or being transferred to work in a new AMC facility), there was not consistent staffing in my daughter's room. I was told her new teacher was one person but consistently saw one of several other teachers rotating to care for her and her classmates. The lack of consistency in care is not ideal or good for child development. Some vacancies have been open for several months and new teachers still have not been hired to allow for consistent care for each classroom. Adding insult to injury, I left instructions for my child to never be given juice but have found juice in her cup several times. To me this is indicative of the administration not following care instructions and made me wonder whether my daughter was cared for in the way I instructed. This is a safety issue. This may be in part due to the rotation of teachers who are unaware of her dietary restrictions in her room. Parents with a child in the same class are charged different rates from each other. I was told on multiple occasions that I am paying a "discounted rate" but know from other friends with a child in my daughter's class that they pay lower rates than me. On top of that, I was told that my rate would be increasing by $45 per week on the same day I made a complaint. No one else that is paying my rate or lower was notified of a rate increase. This seems retaliatory for bringing a complaint to administration attention. Overall, the inconsistent application of tuition rates seems dishonest and unfair. In the most recent hurricane, we were not notified that daycare closed and only found out upon driving to daycare. Though the weather conditions felt safe to us, it seems irresponsible for administration to have risked our safety and our child's safety but not notifying us in advance if they felt the conditions were too unsafe to keep daycare open. On top of that, it was inconsiderate and is indicative of how they (do not) communicate on important issues that come up. In summary, some teachers harsh treatment of children, poor treatment of teachers by the administration, staffing issues, the lack of adherence to my care instructions for my daughters dietary requirements, poor communication with parents, and inconsistent application of tuition rates across attendees led us to remove our daughter from care at All My Children. I can't recommend them for childcare.

Good evening Ms Denver I appreciate the compliment, thank…read moreyou. As an AMC Staff member I just would like to address a few things based off these accusations you posted. Not for sure where you got some of the information but let me clear the air. In most businesses when a person files a complaint , they will not know what happen. So even though you may think nothing happen the situation was address . As well to why a person is no longer employed. As far as staff being treated well sorry you feel that way. Though we may not have a Health and benefit plan(that the facility is locally own and doesn't qualify just yet)it is compensated in other areas. Just to name a few we have a life Insurace plan as well as an accidental plan because you know accidents happen. As far as salary you are paid based upon your education, raises and bonus are given based upon education performance and what are you doing to improve your craft. So if you come in entry level and give entry level performance than you will stay at your entry level position you have to want it and take advantage of it as well. There is also compensation on salary because in every state world wide we know teachers are not paid enough if the center provides the resources it is your responsibility to take advantage of it. I am sure you know Randa story, AMC provided the resources to go to school. There are also other programs through the state based on education you can get another source of income quarterly, but I am sure this information was not provided to you. As far as tuition, I am just trying to understand if you were already paying under the market how much should it have decrease. You were left at a grandfather price. In the state of NC you were actually paying school aged prices for your child. Asking anyone how much they pay a month is a violations of privacy. Some of the parents you may have had that conversation with most certainly qualified for subsidize care so yes they will pay differ from those who don't qualify. It's just like when she enters public school some kids will have free lunch some will not. Just like rent your neighbors can pay more or less than you so what was the problem. I will definitely miss your bundle of joy, wish you nothing but the best for your family in the future. Shay

It was an interesting evening because it started raining hard just about 7p as the event was getting in gear. I'm sure it deterred quite a few from attending. There are two floors with other 'artist in residence' so it was a lively and diverse Friday crowd. I did make it 'upstairs' to meet Caitlin Cary, a local artist who has a studio there.

We are very happy that we picked this excellent daycare, full of caring, respectful and professional teachers that make you and your kid feel like family. There is no doubt in our hearts that this was the best choice we could've ever done, our son its very independent, polite and ready for a big kid school thanks to this institution. If you are looking for a place that really cares for your child this is the place to go. I'm a very picky mother and after many visits to different schools I had to only step inside to see how much the director along with the teachers care, my son was very comfortable and the staff make us feel welcome, they did not ignore my son like everybody else did at the others daycare, we did not felt rushed and every question we had it was answered, once he started attending I loved it even more to see how much the staff care. We are very sad we have to leave because we feel part of this big family where we are always welcome with a smile but the time has come and we have nothing but many things to be thankful for.
