I worked here while I was pregnant, one of the older workers with the babies where I was at would…read moreliterally hit and give the babies melatonin, when I said something we got into an argument and I got fired. Not one child in that room was even close to 12 months old At the time. I would NEVER in a million years leave my child at this place after working there and seeing how they are, telling babies to shut up, calling them ugly, laughing at them, talking about their parents, these people are sick and the woman who owns the place is even worst because she just lets it happen.

NEGLECT & ABUSE It…read morehas taken me months to share this story but I have to. Back in March 2022 we started noticing signs of neglect with my 4 year old. Would come home with questionable bruises, and had repeated rocks getting stuck in his ears. After a second ER visit and an expensive specialist to dislodge a small rock we attempted to talk to the director whom was dismissive at best. "Kids will be kids" My son had started dreading going to school, having way more outbursts at home and just overall struggle. We had solidified a new daycare . Our family took a vacation to kick off the transition I have never seen my son struggle so much with anxiety to the point that I was deeply concerned. We got back and he started his new school. By the end of the first day the new teacher and director pull e in to there office with disturbing insight. My child had gotten in trouble on the playground, wasn't listening and ran to hide from the teacher. When she found him he was visibly shaking, fear ridden and communicated once he felt safer that he liked this school better because they didn't hit him. I immediately called the state, CPS and emailed the director. The director never replied to my email. We started an investigation to which my child opened up further about being both physically and sexually abused while in the care of two female teachers. Ms. Shawna and Ms. Faye. He confided in the detectives that in timeout they would hit him on his arms and legs. AND in the confined and private bathrooms that they would hit his penis. He had recently in the months previously regressed having multiple accidents a week. By the end of that week another parent told me that the director had fired the two teachers , I told the director that they were fired and even she said that's as shady. Ultimately the system didn't find enough evidence and I didn't stick around long enough to find more parents who might have experienced this with there kids. Months later, emotional repair and play therapy later my child has bounced back but at what cost. They will carry this with them FOREVER. The director fired these teachers to make her school look better but didn't take our accusations seriously. These predators are likely back in child care continuing the same cycle of abuse. And for what? So the director can keep her school appearing to be a safe space and making A LOT of money off our children. I have never met a more pro formative women then the one who runs this. The director is clearly a business woman who should stop making money off our children and invest her time elsewhere. This is not safe childcare. Our kids deserve safety and not trauma.

The school is a very good school the school is very well educated school it has very nice teachers!…read moreMy son really likes this school!

Our family had a horrible experience at SP in the 3yo Class. Our child who has been to several…read moreother day programs in the city and has had great experiences did not do so well at SP. She started coming home complaining about boys hitting her. Shortly after, my wife was called in to speak to the school leaders about their concerns with our child's behavior. When politely asked how they were handling the situation, the teachers and the leaders at SP could not communicate any form of appropriate plan or strategy to help improve their concerns or our concerns. We then decided to remover her from the program and move her to another day program that she had been to previously. The most shocking part of this story came when we learned that SP somehow found out where we were moving our child and proceeded to call the school to tell them to watch out for us and our child. We have never bad mouthed SP. All we wanted to do was chalk it up to a bad fit and move on with our lives, but now that SP has taken the time and effort to call other programs/schools in the city to talk negatively about our family feel compelled to write this review to bring awareness to what I feel is unethical actions and behaviors. Needless to say, I highly recommend you move in a different direction when it comes to choosing a program for your child. This is my first and hopefully my last negative review I will post on social media.
