Pitter Patter is an awful daycare. My 2 year-old son was enrolled there for seven weeks and the…read morecare he received was abysmal. During just his first week there has was twice released to us at the end of the day with a dry BM in his diaper, indicating that he had been left to sit in his filth for quite some time. On the second of these two occasions, his diaper was barely fastened, and his sneakers were on the wrong feet. Only the most inattentive caretaker could remain oblivious to his improper gait. I brought this up in writing with executive director Kristi Hook, who never followed up with me, despite her assurance that she would look into it. Just one week later he was again released to us with a BM in his diaper, and additionally we saw that one of his feet had been forced into the heel counter of his sneaker, bending it inwards and resulting in a large blister on his heel. I messaged Kristi about this, attaching a picture of said blister, and was just flat-out ignored. I followed up a week later, and she only then informed that the teachers had apparently looked at his foot the following day and didn't see any blister, implying that I somehow imagined it. The last straw was this past Friday, when we noticed after bringing him home that his pants reeked of poo. I went to change his diaper expecting a BM, but instead just some dry fecal residue literally fell out as I opened it, with a fair amount still in his butt crack. That his pants smelled so strongly of feces despite there being only some residue tells me that he had again been left to sit in his filth for an extended period of time, until pick-up. As for the teacher who decided it wasn't necessary to fully clean him after a BM, all I can say is shame on you, and I hope you don't neglect your own kids like that. Each of these incidents on their own may not be exceptionally alarming, but that all of them (and more) happened, and in such a short span of time, with zero attempt on behalf of the facility to remedy it, speaks to a pattern of utter disregard. Pitter Patter prides itself on not being corporate-owned, but our son has spent upwards of a year between Bright Horizons in Northbrook and KinderCare in Schaumburg, and we never encountered anything like the above at those centers. See my Google review of KinderCare--I certainly give credit where it's due. This pandemic has made it especially hard for parents to keep tabs on their kids, so I am sharing our experience at Pitter Patter with others in the hopes that they heed my warning and be extra vigilant of the care their children receive. I do not recommend this daycare.

BUT I can honestly say the teachers need to do BETTER! First of all there is too many kids in one class 15-20 in a class your child will not get the care and attention they need, at least in my opinion. If your child has a runny nose or face dirty they never took the time to wipe their face, will be picked up with crusty dried up boogies. They have an app for update but most of the time you will not be sent pictures or updates besides the diaper change/or lunch(snack). I don't think they clean as well as they should, I can tell not only how my kids looked at pick up but how their classrooms smelled, sticky floors you can definitely tell if a poopy diaper was changed. My kids caught hand foot and mouth, strep multiple times being there, it was the worst. The toddler bathrooms were dirty and not cleaned, they let both boy and girl go to the restroom at the same time, in my opinion should not be allowed. It seemed like they were always short staffed, you never got the same teacher when dropping off or picking up the kids. If you have a picky eater the lunches there are not the best. My kids would come home hungry every day, if we got pictures of the food it did not look appetizing at all. You provided blankets pillows for nap but half the time they are using other kids things and not what you provided.
