This is a great bunch of people who really care for the kids. We've had our kids in this center for the past 4 years, and haven't had any problems. The kids get great care here, and the interior and play areas are well cared for. They're also very flexible about getting the kids to school once the kids reach school age.
I don't know which location the other reviewer was talking about, but it couldn't be this one. There's no way they could share cribs with another classroom, since there is only one room with cribs. This whole review sounds like it was written by someone who had a grudge with the staff and is trying to punish them. Please take it with a pound or two of salt.
Children are sometimes moved up or down a room as the number of kids shifts over the course of the day, but it's not some grand conspiracy. As kids get picked up, fewer caregivers are needed. The classes get reorganized, so that all of the ratio requirements are maintained without paying full staff when the place is nearly empty. This is just common sense, and is one of the things that keeps the place affordable. As a benefit, the kids get familiar with and comfortable with their next-level caregivers and rooms a bit at a time, rather than shifting cold turkey as I've seen at other centers. It's much less stressful this way.
As far as putting your children on undersized swings, letting them sleep on the floor or in drafts, or tormenting a slow-to-progress child -I've never seen it. Now, this place isn't the Taj Mahal, but it is a reasonably priced center that I'm happy to have watch my kids while my wife and I are at work.
