shocked by the comments

by Surprisedparent at Citysearch

I have been reading the comments and I am honestly surprised at all of the negative statements. I have had 2 children go to WJCC and they both loved it. If I hadn't moved they would still be going there. Both of my kids, 7yr and 4yr, always brought home art projects and other crafts, even when they were just over the age of one. I have never had a problem with the staff seeming rude or uncaring, perhaps a bit dishevled at times, but honestly who can blame them after being beaten up by 23 three year old children for 8 hours with the back up of only one person, I for one commend these ladies for doing their job and doing it well as I could never fill their shoes. My 7yr old son still to this day speaks of the three year old teacher and how much he misses being in her class. She was always very nice to my child and from what I saw all of the other children, half the times when picking up my kids they wouldn't even want to leave with me they wanted to go home with her. And while it hurt my feelings a bit, I think it speaks wonders of the quality of care and the love my kids recieved while attending the center. I would highly recommend ths center and also urge you all to take into account that people with something negative to say are 80% more likely to say it than people with something good to say. so take the comments with a grain of salt

• Pros: great staff, fun environment, good facility
• Cons: parking(kindof limited)

Only desperate parents allowed

by lovmykids at Citysearch

I've been using this day care facility for 4 years. Over the past 2 years the facility, services and staff have declined in quality drastically. Therefore, I am currently searching for a new day care facility.

The facility is dirty and unorganized. The security at the front of the building and in the parking lot is unacceptable. Anyone can walk in off the street and have direct access to any classroom. The front desk is poorly supervised, and it is unoccupied a lot of the time; staff commonly congregate in the back office to gossip and discuss personal issues. The parking lot is poorly lit and has horrible parking accomodations. It's not maintained during the winter and the employees consistently park the company vehicles in the handicap spot and the spots closest to the front door, leaving parents and visitors to find spaces further away from the building.

Children 3+ spend a large amount of time watching TV and very little time learning. You are reassured by the management that this isn't the case and that each class has an educational cirriculum; however, little learning occurs.

The quality of teachers is mixed, good and bad. However, the bad ones are REALLY bad. For example, the 3 year old teacher is the owner's daughter and it is apparent she gets preferential treatment. Parents complain about her constantly, children hate her, multiple children have been removed from her class because they fear her, she doesn't show a sincere interest in the kids and yet nothing is done about her. She is very vocal about her higher-than-others salary and that she is the owner's daughter. I would be embarrassed to have her representing my company and especially embarrassed if she were my daughter.

The good teachers truly love the children and what they do. I'm glad my children spend time with them.

It's a bit troublesome that children of employees are allowed to assist in the classrooms with their parent. This seems dangerous to me.

• Pros: 2nd nursery, toddler room, 2 year old teacher
• Cons: facility, organization, 3 year old teacher
