Pros

I do not have pros. This facility was the most chaotic of any I've seen.

Cons

I enrolled my son in the 18-24 month class when I began my first day of orientation. I peeked in on my son multiple times and witnessed his teacher yanking babies by the arm, scolding them harshly while pointing in their faces, and slapping their hands. When I picked up my son, the teacher had no report for me and dismissed me promptly. I remained standing, hoping to get some kind of information on how my son had been for that 8 hours, and the teacher responded "He sat on that rug and cried for several hours." I reported the maltreatment to the director, and she said "No, that doesn't happen in my rooms." Management squeezes their employees by paying them very little and packing as many children in the rooms as possible, even when that means momentarily being over the state mandated ratio.
