Kid’s Corner

If you’re interested in a dirty, poorly run daycare then this is just right for you! My 5 month old attended this daycare for a little over two months. On three separate occasions I picked my baby up and found that she had not been properly cleaned during her last diaper change. I spoke with the assistant director and she acted as if I were telling her that the teacher forgot to pack my daughter’s bottles, her nonchalance was truly astounding! After not getting a proper response from her I then took it upon myself to talk to the Director. She assured me that it would be handled and that the situation wasn’t something they tolerate. Yet not even month later we were back in the same boat. No one should ever pick up their child from daycare and find dried poop on their baby’s back! Or poop in their daughter’s folds. For $ 400+ a month for daycare I expect more! I did not like that the staff were unkept, dirty hair and dirty stained and bleached clothing. Even on a Monday morning! The pad on the changing table in the infant room has a huge hole on the middle that’s covered by some tape! Seriously? With all of the money the parents are spending you would think this daycare would be able to afford getting a new changing pad. Also the center allows people (including employees and parents) to walk on the infant floor without shoe covers. Which means you all of the germs from the bottom of whomever’s shoe is now on your infants hands, which are now in his/​her mouth, face, eyes. The teachers never knew what was going on with my daughter. Some days when I would pick her up she would have on different clothing (sometimes not even her own clothing) and I would ask what happened. Half the time no one could tell me what happened because «they weren’t in the room». You would think that changes like that would go on your child’s chart, but no the teachers did a horrible job managing the daily activity charts. If I had my way this place would be shut down. I ended up pulling my daughter from the daycare after the third poop incident occurred and the owner/​director failed to even return my call. Oh but once I pulled my daughter she was blowing my phone up demanding that I pay a $ 200 withdrawal fee for not giving them a 2 weeks notice? Wtf? I am not, and did not, pay a $ 200 fine for a daycare’s negligence. I didn’t want to pull my child out of daycare! I had to work, I needed her there. But I was not going to send my child back to a place that was neglecting to properly care for her!
