: Deeply Concerned - Please Read Before Enrolling Your Child at Precious People's Daycare in Alden I had a deeply upsetting experience at Precious People's Daycare that I feel obligated to share in hopes of protecting other children and families. Only a few weeks after enrolling my children, I personally witnessed a staff member scream at an infant, aggressively rip a pacifier out of a child's mouth, and yell at my son. I immediately stepped in and told the staff member their behavior was completely unacceptable and inappropriate.I brought this to the attention of the director via email, as she wasn't on site at the time. Rather than investigating the situation or asking for clarification, she terminated our contract, stating my children were no longer welcome at the daycare. As if they would ever go back. I reported the incident to the state licensing authority, as what I witnessed constituted verbal, emotional, and physical abuse. The day after the state investigated, the director attempted to retaliate by claiming my daughter's behavior was "out of control" -- something that has never been said about her in years of attending other daycares without issue. It felt like a clear effort to discredit our family and shift blame. This daycare raises many red flags: -No website or transparent contact information -No platform to leave or read reviews -Staff members who are not properly trained or supervised If you're considering this daycare, I urge you to ask questions, demand transparency, and trust your gut. I share this not out of anger, but out of duty to protect other families. Please be cautious. Advocate for your children. Speak up when something doesn't feel right. I was in shock but what I personally seen I can only imagine what happens behind close doors. *** look at the states website I am not the only parent who raises serious concerns *** read more

My 3 year old has been attending since she was about 6 months old and the staff here has been like family to her. We appreciate them and all of their efforts every day! My daughter has speech therapy as well as other extra services that she needs and they are all so patient and kind with her! read more

Enrolling your children in daycare is not an easy decision but when you feel comfortable with the daycare it makes a huge difference. With that being said when my husband and I were "shopping" around for childcare we heard nothing but positive things about Anita's daycare and we loved the fact it felt like a mom and pa family daycare . Our boys have been going there for the past two years and I have nothing but positive things to say about Anita and her staff . Sam, Sandy ,Carissa and Emma are absolutely fantastic , our youngest son started daycare right at 3 months . It was a hard adjustment for myself but Sam made me feel so comfortable and confident in her abilities to care for our son. Our oldest son was 1 1/2 years old when we was enrolled, the staff made him feel comfortable durning his transition and got him out of his shell . Both of my boys truly look forward to going to "school" as we call it . We love getting daily updates on the app that tells about their days along with pictures , all the cute crafts they do and hearing the boys talk about their "teachers" and friends is beyond heartwarming. We have never had any issues and I am extremely picky who I trust with my children. I am beyond happy Anita is not advertising her daycare like a chain daycare , I don't want my children to be seen as money signs . This daycare is Alden's best kept secret and truly cares about your children. read more
