The owner is on another planet first and foremost. Her name is Heather and shes the "director". I have never in my life felt so unwelcomed. This should have been red flag #1. Not only is she controlling, but she talks at you and not with you, which is very frustrating. The 2nd red flag was when Ms. Heather belittled my son on his potty training. She was the only one who complained about my son. I informed her i was on board 100% on getting him on the potty training wagon. I asked his pediatrician what i should do since he was a little behind on grasping it. The Dr told me do not rush my son, he will pick it up when he is ready but still keep introducing it to him. When i gave this info to the director i sensed her hatred for me grew stronger. Yes it sounds crazy but my gut was right about her. The next week she told me my son was doing absolutely horrible and was declining at potty training and i informed her that he actually picked up the pace and has been doing better than before. So that was disappointing to hear someone talk negatively about my child. I was upset. She's very negative and its not even her son to have the right to speak negatively about. Daycares are supposed to understand and be patient on how kids operate. The next day i asked his teacher how his potty training was going and she replied" Great, hes doing better, and no accidents today". I said in my head, i hope god heard that. This is when i knew i had a psychopath on my hands. This woman sits around all day tallying up ways to make peoples lives miserable. The people who need their children taken care of while they go to work to make a living. Who has time for this nonsense? Weeks later, i pick my son up and gave him a bath. I noticed he had a cut on his finger and it was bleeding. he also had what appeared to be bite marks but could have been something else. I was never notified that he was ever hurt, but i will get a paragraph 3x a week on how he looked at another child the wrong way. Ridiculous. I asked my son how he got the cut and he said scissors at daycare. The next morning i told Ms Heather what happened and she looked at me like i was the biggest liar, she looked at me like how dare i tell her this. She had an evil glare at me. she looked at me with hatred. I explained i just want to be told when my son gets hurt. When she was done killing me with her looks, she said "we didn't even have scissors that day". And then she went on to say "i was in the room when they had scissors" blah blah blah. I said, you just said they didn't have scissors. I told her " i'm just asking to be notified when he gets hurt" and she replied she understood, but i really got the impression that she just wanted vengeance. This is why alot of people should not run daycares, this is a perfect example. Don't run a daycare if you don't care about kids and keeping them safe for the parents. DONT DO IT. The next week she kicked my son out. How dare her. Update after writing the review: After an hour of writing the review, me and my husband received several calls and voicemails telling us to come and pick up my son immediately because i wrote a bad review and the owner couldn't handle the criticism. Do not bring your child here, trust me. Save yourself the stress and frustration, as this is below a last resort to bring your child. There is a daycare across the street called Kid City and the owner here is the opposite from Sunshine Academy. They should re-name this daycare to Nightmare Academy.

Truly the best. Brought my son here after he was removed from another daycare because he kept trying to run out of the classroom. This was due to him being undiagnosed with ADHD. Sunshine helped us so much. They kept him safe and helped manage him while we went through getting him diagnosed and medicated. They got him ready for public school as well. Ms. Heather is the best! Great people who actually care and have empathy. Would recommend to anyone.

First time putting my child in daycare when I went everything seemed ok but rushed. The second day attending I picked her up and she looked like she had been crying. When asked they told me no. Then when I showered her that same day she ended up with markings on her body and red mark in her eye. Again I called and asked if anything happen. They said no. So I told the director there I didn't feel comfortable having my kid there and it was like ok let me get your things. NO compassion at all. On the way out she said sorry. A week later I called to see if she ever figured something out and apparently now they remember she fell outside from one of there play areas. Can't trust these people.

If I had an option to give them a no star rating I would. They are dirty. My daughter was sick every week. She caught a yeast infection from them not changing her like they are supposed to. How does a one year old get a yeast infection?!?!? No normal. Also they have a roach infestation. DCF has gone to their facility and find nothing because the roaches scatter and hide when they turn the lights on in the morning. They refuse to do anything about it; they only say that the church is the one responsible for getting an exterminator to be able to clean the facility. SICK!
