I absoulutly hate this place. 2 things were determining factors as to why I took my 4 year old daughter out of this godforsaken place. 1) My daughter had dislocated her arm while at the center. I was not called. The sad thing was I only worked next door the center and they couldn't walk the 50 feet to tell me she was hurt. When I picked her up around 5:45 pm, she told me that her arm was hurting. When I took a look at it, it was visibly swollen and she could not move it. When I asked the teacher what happened she told me that she didn't know. I had to pass through my work when my co-workers stopped me. My daughter told my co-workers and I that she had hurt it after the afternoon snack (about 2-3pm). I took her to the hospital, and they reset her arm. I unfortunatly had to leave her at the center for a few more weeks until I could find another pre-school. When asked if they had an accident report written, they said no. They never produced an accident report to myself or my caseworker when it was requested. 2) As soon as I walked in the door of the center one night, the director Robert, started telling me how horrible my daughter was acting that day. He told me that she is border-line special needs and that he just can't handle her behavior. I explained to him, for the 5th time, that she does have behaviorial issues and is not special needs. He continued to talk to me in a disrespectful way. The next week I told Elizabeth, the co-director, that this was my daughter's last week. There was and is no reason that Robert should talk to me like that. My daughter is now out of that place is doing very well at her new pre-school. As for these people they should be out of business and not allowed to work with children again!
Pros: Close to work
Cons: No notification if child is hurt
