The owner is good at gossiping, this I knew before attempting to enroll my youngest. what I didn't…read morerealize was how petty she was. My child was denied because of a personal issue another mother had with me, and then I find out that the owner decided to tell the other mother lies about me that she is now trying to use in court! Best place to take your children only if you're perfect, and even then they'll make up something.

WORST DAYCARE IN MINOT…read more I worked at this daycare for about a week, and my experience was very disappointing. During the interview, I was told I would be in a classroom with another teacher and would receive proper training, but that never happened. I was placed alone in a room with more children than I felt was appropriate, and staff often shifted kids around. If a child in another room was acting out, they were usually sent to my room, while calmer kids from my classroom were taken elsewhere. There was also a situation during nap time involving a child on the spectrum that made me extremely uncomfortable. Another staff member showed me how they put him to sleep by laying him on his stomach, pulling a blanket over his head, and using her leg to hold him in place. I know some kids use weighted blankets, but this was nothing like that -- it did not look safe or appropriate to me. Even basic things like using the bathroom were difficult. Since you're not allowed to leave children alone, I had to stand in the hallway trying to get someone to cover my room just to use the restroom -- meanwhile, other teachers routinely left their rooms unattended. It felt very unorganized and unsafe. During that same week, I ended up getting the flu and strep throat. When I decided I wasn't coming back, I was yelled at, which only confirmed my decision. I also barely saw the owner -- maybe twice the entire week -- and she didn't seem involved with the kids or what was happening in the classrooms. From my perspective, it felt like the focus was more on running the business than on supporting staff or children. Overall, the experience was stressful, disorganized, and concerning enough that I chose not to return. IF I COULD GET IT A 0 STAR I WOULD.

Yeah, this place is a disaster. My child was bit there and apparently no one saw or knew about it…read more It broke skin! Not only that he had a nose bleed from "falling down" same day! No incident report or nothing from that "director" for the bite only half ass apology from the nose bled. I say if you love your kid better think about. I'm still upset at myself for allowing my baby into that place. I pulled them out so quick and all they cared about was MONEY. (Oak Park location)
