To Jim F My response to your review. Hello, WOW! I know EXACTLY who you are and after I saw your nasty review I have to tell you I was initially stunned that you would do this to me after everything I did to help your family. But ok. The review you gave me is confirmation to me that letting your family go was the right business decision for me. So let me address your complaints and comments you have PUBLICALLY made. First of all your family came to me for help after you both stated that I came highly recommended and both of you admitted that you failed to help your child in areas of development over a long extended time and knowing it was close to your child getting ready to enter kindergarten now seriously behind. YOU asked for my help and I sincerely tried. First I asked you both if you were willing to work with your child at home on things he needed to develop after I complete my assessment and both of you said ” absolutely” but you did not. In nearly 11 years I have only given a small homework assignment to 2 children a few times and the small amount of activities I asked you to do at home in fact were not done. You chose to do something completely different on multiple occasions and I made mention of them to you a number of times. Things I had asked for were not returned most of the time so I could document your child's progress. Your child repeatedly missed days that they should have been here learning so I extended myself even though I am not required or obligated to do so and sent home materials for you to use and bring back which by the way I paid for and were never returned. Your child’s anxiety was there long before coming to me. Though I have a strong professional opinion as to why I will leave that set aside but I can assure you that is a direct result of you the parents and not me. As for the money portion. I gave your family a discount of my weekly childcare fee. You were also not legally entitled to a refund under any circumstances. You signed a binding contract. I gave it back to you anyway and then you complain? Seriously? I have a business to run and it does take money to do so. I had also reminded you that the tuition parents pay go right back into my program for the maximum benefit of the parents child and I had spent a lot for your child. Yes I care about my income just like anyone else but yet you condemn me for that. Lastly, you make a comment about my son? What the hell is wrong with you? He has EVER RIGHT to be here. He is a hard worker, works a full time job, has a CLEAN criminal background check and CLEAN child abuse record as required by the state and over the years I have run my business the children he has been around adore him. Neither one of you have even if ever barley spoken to my son. But over the course of the last three years he is not home as much because he WORKS! That was so uncalled for from you and absolutely shameful! So I am going to PUBLICALLY respond to your review as you have PUBLICALLY tried to shame me. By the way I do keep a copy of ALL documentation.

Beware! Everything looks good on paper, but it’s a very different game once your child is in. My child was very stressed every time I dropped them off. If homework was not done or turned in the CHILD would be shamed. We are talking about 3-5 year olds! Speaking of homework, there was a ton of it. More than my children who are actually in school were doing. We became concerned about the emotional well-being of our toddler while at this home. There is much talk about finances(very unprofessional) and sometimes you might feel like you’re being shaken down for money or things for the daycare. I did not hear too much negative talk about the other parents but I can see that happening. Her adult son also lives in the home and has access and interaction with the children. My advice, find somewhere else. Anywhere else.
