They will close the daycare due to personal issues even if you paid for the week. They will leave your child at school without prior notice that they have closed for unbeknown reasons to you as the parent. When they do pick the kids up they are often late and the school calls will have you terrified that your child has been left stranded. Baby's are picked up with a diaper full of urine. The daycare looks like a whole in the wall not fit for a dog kennel. On top of that she is unethical with her prices and will charge you $15 if you are a minute late. This place I cannot even call it a daycare and it should be closed. You are better off choosing a more reliable day care. This place is disgusting

Overall, I give this school 4/5 stars at this time because, for me, the most important aspects of…read morechildcare are quite strong, and there is some room for improvement. We've been there 1.5 years. The strengths start with the staff--almost all staff are engaged (read: not on their phones, willing to conference and work with parents), and pleasant. Another strength is their policies -- the ratios they require are better than DHS, they implement and advertise policies for safety (eg, parents don't be on cell phone at pick up). Plus, the Montessori curriculum is actually implemented in classrooms--it's not just a daycare holding place. We moved from another daycare and my child's physical and cognitive development skyrocketed when we Changed schools. Now, the school is in a huge old house, so it's not fancy in material but they regularly repair and have an excellent playground the kids visit 1-2 times daily. I find it perfectly quaint. The limits right now are on communication about big changes. They have a monthly newsletter that's brief and helpful. They lack other infrastructure for communicating with parents that really works--some have a Facebook page, some rely on texting parents...but it's not consistent or multifaceted enough to catch everybody (eg some people email, some need flyers). I've learned about big changes by noticing something and asking, Like a new teacher joining or combining two classrooms. My other issue is with nutrition, which plays a big role in child behavior, mood, and development . "Snack" is often processed food with few nutrients (eg Cheez its, graham crackers), and hot lunch is better but not great. Now, we compensate by bringing our child's lunch, but she eats most or more of her allotted sugar each day at school snacks and doesn't get many important nutrients from the food provided.

Unfortunately my 11 week old was not attended to very well. He only spent one week at the facility…read morebut 4 out of the 5 days we picked him up he was crying. The 5th day was my breaking point as my baby was hysterically crying, I could here him from the moment I walked in the front door. When I got to him he was drenched in sweat and the care taker (there was only one person in the room at the time) was putting another baby in a swing. This day was the first time my baby had ever cried actual running tears, I'm sure he had been screaming crying for over 15 minutes at the very least as there were beads of sweat and tears running down his face and his back was drenched as well. I decided that I couldn't leave him in their care any longer as I felt he was neglected. Because I had only had him there for one week I asked for a refund of the following week of care but I was denied a refund. I understand that there is a company policy of a two week notice but there is no way I could allow my child to be in a daycare that allows him to cry to the point of being inconsolable. I explained our situation as a military family and soon to be a one income family if they could please make an exception for these circumstances and they did not. I would not recommend this daycare for any infants, the only time they have face to face time with a caretaker is when they are being fed and burped, other than that they are corralled in and out of swings, bouncers and their cribs. The state has mandated a 1:5 ratio but kareer kids was grandfathered in to have a 1:6 ratio, the care takers are clearly overwhelmed.
