This is the WORST daycare center EVER. Most (but not all) of the staff members are extremely unprofessional and short-tempered with the children - and even the parents. You'll catch them being very polite to the children when you drop them off but when they think you are not looking, they treat the children like prisoners.

We have a daughter with Autism and they kept admonishing us for her strict diet - which has been approved and consistently monitored by her primary care physician and two other specialists.

They are over-priced. When they say they charge extra past 6:30 and you agree to pay the extra fee, they REALLY mean they don't want to stick around past 6:30 and treat you like a bad parent for picking up your child "so late".

When picking up my daughter after work at the time I said I would be there, the manager had the nerve to walk up to me and point her finger close to my face in a threatening manner. When I told them I was putting in my two-week notice because they wouldn't work with our daughter's special diet needs and I was tired of their harassment and the negative comments I was hearing from my daughter, they then threatened to call DCF and have me "fired" from my job. Absurd?

Wait, there's more! They then said to me, "You can't let US go. WE are disenrolling you!" Then a staff member came out and took a picture of my license plate as I was walking my daughter to my car.

This place is run by NUTS! Our daughter, who gets along with just about everyone, begged us not to take her there anymore and I can only hope that we can help others from making the same mistake we made in initially trusting this awful place.
