Horrible experience few years back I had my daughter in thsi daycare. Enrolled her based on reviews and we were new immigrants to the country. My daughter was barely 2 years old and I was already too nervous to put her in somebody’s hands. And I was right, I had worst 6 months where the teachers didn’t care about her food and diaper changes. She used to come home like if we would pick her around 5:30 or so , and she had dirty diaper before that time , they would not change it and keep her for me to change when reach home. That little kid in dirty poop doaper would get rash in that 1 hour of getting home. I noticed this on third occurrence with back to back rashes and ultimately complained but they didn’t take a notice. I was on hint of finding the other daycare meanwhile anyways and had to deal with this. Then a random temporary hire teacher was so rough to kids when I made an entry around 6pm and she was just too done with all kids. She was literally pushing them. I confronted her for being so rude to kids literally under age 3, and she became rude to me as well. Center again complained but they said we will check but nothing was ever done. She was still there preety much showing arrogance to em and I was so scared of how she must have dealt my daughter behind me. Lastly they would not feed my daughter food if she won’t ask, she was shy and in that new environment was taking time to adjust. Many times she would come home n burst into tears and u controllable cries which I was unable to crack until I fed her and realized she was crashing on low sugar and energy. Center principal to this was like we can’t force feed kids, I agree don’t force feed but if a kid has not eaten anything all day atleast call or let their parents know or give her options from snacks whatever she likes to survive the day. Outside food was not allowed and hence I suffered this too. Horrible 6-9 months , I wonder how some parents simply ignore so many red flags in thsi center. Surprise visit n you will know

Response from the owner

Hi Mehwish. This is a really confusing review, as firstly we do not employ casual educators here therefore we do not have temporary teachers, and never have. In regard to the food, we changed to halal meat at your request when you first started with us so that your child had more variety at meal times. It is true that we do not allow outside food here due to allergies, so we made this change for you as you were concerned she may not eat. She was offered food at every single meal time, we do not ever just wait for children to ask for food. Our last interactions with you 3 years ago were really pleasant (you even expressed that your child was in the best hands) and we have absolutely no recollection or documentation of any of the incidents you have mentioned so again, we are very confused as you even came back in after finishing to visit your daughter’s teachers. We hope she is doing well. If you’d like to come in and discuss this, we would be more than happy for that.
