About two month's after our child had transitioned to the 3yo classroom, we started to notice marks…read moreon her that weren't there when she was dropped off. Now we understand that as kids get older they become more adventurous and curious about their environment and other children. Accidents happen and we understand that, but in our case these "Accidents" were happening weekly, sometimes twice a week. The first incident: We were told that close to the end of the day the Assistant head of school and the classroom teacher were cleaning up, getting ready to take the kids to the play room for final pickup. They heard our daughter crying and turned around to find her crying on the floor. They tended to her writing an incident report stating that she had fallen out of a chair. When I went to pick her up I was notified about the incident and or course I checked out my daughter for injuries. When I saw how severe the injury was I started to question just how far she fell. So I went back inside asking to see where the incident happened and I was shown to her classroom. I was told she fell out of her chair and hit her face on the table. The mark on her face was basically a black eye, the chair is maybe 2 ft. off the ground and the table 4ft. How is it possible for her to fall hard enough to hit her face on the table and cause a black eye? The logic doesn't add up unless you add that my child was standing on the chair and fell from higher up before hitting her face. This brings up the question of why was she allowed to stand in a chair? Why wasn't she being told to get down, or removed from the chair prior to an incident happening? This was the first incident that made me question. Two days later I arrive to pick up my child and there is another incident report that I have to sign. This time a bookshelf had fallen on my child. Yes you read that right, a bookshelf fell on my child. This caused a bloody nose and a bruise on her face. When I questioned how something like this could happen, they explained to me that because their daycare is so new they hadn't had time to have the bookshelves secured to wall. They apologized and ensured that a ticket had been inputted to have the shelves secured to the wall. Now this is not 100% on the daycare. From what they explained the children like to climb on the bookshelves to reach books higher up. This was probably the case for my daughter, but there are a few problems with this. One, why are the children allowed to climb on a bookshelf. Even if it's secured to the wall, what happens if they fall off? Second, if they aren't allowed to climb on the bookshelf, why wasn't my child told not climb the bookshelf? Who was supposed to be paying attention to her to ensure her safety? Third, why isn't the security of the furniture within the classroom a higher priority? Furniture being secured is a basic necessity for a child care program to ensure the safety of all children that attend the school. Cabinets should have locks, same with drawers, same with furniture. This was not the case until after a child got hurt. The Third incident was the final straw for me. About 2 weeks later, I went to pick up my child and all of the kids were outside playing. I went into the playground picking up my child and I noticed she had a bruise on her face. I proceeded to ask her what happened and she told me she was hit in the face with a stick by another child. Now once again, children will be children. I cannot expect that everything would be caught and prevented. Especially for toddlers. So when this occurred I took her to the teacher that was supposed to be watching the kids outside, and she had no idea what had happened. Mind you there are about 10-15 kids outside. There was only 1 teacher. I then took her to the assistant head of school and asked why wasn't I notified about this, and again I was met with an I don't know. This time there was no incident report.

Upon my first meeting with Richard, he was extremely nice and professional. We were able to partner up and complete multiple facility projects. When it comes to professionalism Richard and his team, could put on a a conference about how they are extremely responsive and attentive. This is what sets Guidepost apart from others. Whether that is me calling in and getting an immediate answer about a project or meeting on site to walk through the building's exterior and interior. When it comes to Child Care and Development, Richard and his team have taken this to the next step by offering the warmest and welcoming facilities I have been to. Each room and the set up of the entire building has a flow that encompasses growth but simultaneously comfort. It's evident their focus here is the children and I believe that is truly their differentiating factor. 10 out 10, 6 Stars if I could! Thank you Richard, and the Guidepost Team for this continued partnership we look forward to the years to come!

My 1st impression is that the facility is clean and the safety and security of the children are their priority. They provide all meals to ensure safety from allergies. No outside food allowed. Please speak with the staff if your child has special dietary requirements. The staff is professional. They greet you and speak professionally. I don't like to use the word friendly because this is a business and not my friend so kudos to them for maintaining professionalism. They follow the guidelines and don't deviate from them. That is the professionalism that will keep my (g)daughter safe. It's too soon to say how they treat the children in which I expect them to be friendly, kind, and empathetic. However, children are good judges of character, so I am sure if they don't like something they will say something The diversity in the children is here. They respect cultural values, so if you have any concerns let them know. First impressions great place to bring your children.

The teachers know which kids they can do what to; for instance, they know where the cameras are, and they know the 1-2 year olds won't repeat threats. Management is complicit, and they turn their eyes to the abuse because they are afraid of their family-owned business being under scrutiny. One of the members of management told a one year old girl she needed to lay still so she could get her "pussy" cleaned. Kids are regularly told, "If you were my kid, you wouldn't sit down for a week," things like that. I reported the abuse but they did nothing because I didn't realize how widespread it was; multiple teachers laugh when a teacher is "fed up" and threatens a kid. They all do it. It is terrifying.
