Never Neverland Childcare

I came across this daycare when my two daughters were 2 and 4. They were enrolled in a Montessori school and while my 4-yr-old enjoyed it, the daycare did a HORRIBLE job with the younger children. My 2-yr-old cried every time I dropped her off and every time I picked her up. The staff would not changer her diaper often enough, and she would wet 3 sets of clothes. She had boogers running down her face when I picked her up, her shoes were off. It was HORRIBLE! I took them out of there in ONE month. So I had to find somewhere QUICK! My husband and I were driving around and saw the sign for Never Never Land. We decided to stop to talk to the owner, Sandra. Immediately, I got a comforting feeling. I knew that Sandra cared about what was truly important. She did not care about training children to be robots, but she cared about nurturing them and loving them. My daughters are now almost 8 & 10 and they still love Mrs. Murphy. I also have two more little ones, a 2 1/2 year old and an 11 month old. They have all been loved on by Mrs. Murphy. Not once have my children EVER been sick from attending this daycare facility. Not ever have I picked them up with snot running down their face or a dirty diaper. One of the great qualities about Sandra is her honesty. I hated how the other daycare always said that everything went well or was fine when obviously it wasn't. Sandra will be quick to tell you when a child falls (even when they were not seriously hurt), she will tell you if she notices a strange rash or mood change. Her main concern is the well-being of the children. If people are offended by the things that she says, it is probably because they are guilty and in denial about the truth. However, I consider myself to be a good mother, whose main concern is also the well-being of her children. I love that I can count on Sandra to be honest with me and give me advice from her own experiences. I sincerely value her opinion. If you are tired of paying high-dollar only for your child to be trained to be live everyone else, then I suggest you call Sandra. She will encourage your child to be his or her own person! more

I have known Mrs. Murphy for about nine years now, and I can tell you that she is a very responsible daycare provider. She can sometimes be a little loud but that how she is. Mrs. Murphy raised 5 of my children, and by the time they were eligible to go to school they new colors,numbers, abc's. It's not easy finding some one who takes the time to teach your children those things. Most day care providers just ""watch"" your kids during the day. If she was all about the money why would she care if they learned anything, she was getting paid anyway, right? On Friday's they always had face painting, which my kids loved! The arts and craft's class was a bonus for us, I just loved all the art my children did for me. My children absolutely LOVED Mrs. Murphy and I thank God I was able to find her. more

I agree with momma76. She is all the way truthful about what she is saying. I WOULD NOT recommend this facilty at ALL. SANDRA MURPHY is very EVIL, especially under pressure. She talks about everyone's personal business and tells yours. She fronts in the presence of others and also when the state arrives, she acts as if she is polite. She watches and reports everything. She is strictly about cash. She has left bowl, urine and nose matter on my child and said she did not notice it. Her daughter even lied for her and said, ""oh your child must have just done that."" Be careful and make sure you keep copies of all your documents because she will use it against you if you don't have them. She only looks out for herself and betray you once its time to withdraw your child. I have caught her sleeping several times while my child was walking around. While she makes breakfast, kids are sleep from 6am-8am. She has lunch from 11am-12 and kids sleep again from 12pm-3pm. They get up and have snack. There is no dinner. After that they are starving and she feed small portions so she can preserve enough for her houshold with the help of state food program provided for the kids. She knows about these comments and she is the one who wrote the (((5 STARs))) on August 2. I know because she brought it to my attention. She will snake you like a con, so be careful. She always have a handful of kids or less. She is always looking for kids because she can't keep them. She is hurting right now! You will probably see the same two brothers who have different fathers and have family problems that I will not go into. Thats what I know from her stories. The good thing about her is that she has a nice home set up and advertises good expertise. She does nothing about her attitude to communicate the nice things about her facility. My child always cry when he see her. She is the devil. DONT TRUST HER. more

I as a PARENT would recommend this childcare facility to any parent ( mother or father). Mrs. Murphy is a very loud person but that's the Kind of person she is!!! She's very polite and a very caring person. My son stayed with her for about a year before i got layoff. My son was three years old and knew all his ABC, Shapes, Colors, Number and ect.... Also, Complete Potty Trained by the help of Mrs. Sandra Murphy.\r Parents if you have any question dont be afraid to ask her. She will help your child and you \r \r 2008-2009 more

I would not recommend this childcare facility to ANY parent. A polite, caring, and extremely congenial facade is displayed at the front door to greet parents. However, the rapid transformation occurs as the doors close. First, Sandra frequently leaves the young children under the supervision of her eldest adolescent daughter and sometimes even her husband to run errands. Second, there have been numerous incidents of her falling asleep while children are playing. To conclude, as a direct result of her short-tempered nature she screams at the children, and handles them in a rough manner when they are not cooperative. more
