When questioned about our child getting hurt, was given "probably" and "I think" multiple times. There was backtracking on stories, 4 times in 3 months. We kindly approached staff, was told "that is the way it is with kids" when our son came home with bumps and bite marks. It became obvious that staff was not watching our 10 month old wisely. Upon clearing out our child's cubby when we withdrew, we found piles and bags of snacks we were told he had ate. The daycare was sending papers with made up information about our child eating meals he never ate daily! When we approached owner about withdrawing, she rudely stated "already did it for us". It is apparent they do not care about their customers due to the attitude. Very saddening. Had high hopes.
1-2yo classroom; Lunch comes home untouched, juice and water comes home untouched, staff cut my child's hair (had never had first cut before). Staff relentlessly denies any fault regardless of evidence proving otherwise. Director has no remorse or accountability for actions of staff stating "what do you want me to do". Overall terrible experience. VPK staff and classrooms on the other hand; fantastic. Caring, work on individual needs with each child, play centered learning, very communicative. Would not send children under four.
Our son came late in the semester. They were very accommodating and helpful. Honestly they are the best! Our son has improved tremendously while being there we are so grateful for the teachers and staff. I would recommend this school highly!
My now almost 4 year old has gone to this daycare since he was 7 weeks old. Dana - the owner - runs a great program. Each employee/teacher has been great to my son. Never once has my son been upset to go to daycare. They're great!!!
If I could give this place less than a 1 star I would! My grandkids went there for around 3 months… long enough for the 2 yr old to get 3 really bad diaper rashes and come home on the regular with bite marks on him and nobody knew how it happened. Personal items were “misplaced” until they were pushed to find them. The 4 yr old came home and said the teacher pulled her hair. When they got here in December she put their names on waiting lists so they could be in the same daycare. Care A. Lot was the first to call. God answered a prayer when the new place , called and said they had a spot open for both. So we moved them. My grandkids are thriving and happy at the new place. No more coming home crying everyday. Care A lot even told daycare assistance that she had this lined up already. Not true, the cards fell where and when they needed to and was an answered prayer. Had this daycare been a good one, we would have never paid the extra money and enrollment fees to get them out of there! Im leaving this review because they do the bare minimum and the children suffer..also I was never allowed past the door when picking them up, new place is always clean and welcoming… if you love your kids, dont put them here!
I would never send a child here..when my now straight A, 15 year old grandson was kicked out of this place the first day becuz they couldnt handle a crying child who did not want his mommy to leave??? Seems to me if they cant handle a crying 3 yr old, they cant handle kids period..dont know if they changed management but I hope so cuz this place was horrible..
My youngest has been going here since he was 6 months old and loves it so much he can hardly contain his excitement when we get to his classroom and he sees his teachers! The teachers and staff here are wonderful, they seem to genuinely care about the kids and are quick to address any concerns! I am so grateful to have found a daycare I trust for my kids and I highly recommend them to everyone! Thank you so much Care A Lot!
