Valley Child Care & Learning Center

Nope. So, I started my son planning on an approximate 2 days a week here. His 3^rd day, he was bit. It’s going to happen with 2 year olds. I was notified and told that I would be receiving an incident report. The next time, his aunt picked him up. She called me and told me that it looked like he had bite marks on his wrist. I went to get him and he was starting to swell. The teachers had said nothing to her. I went to the school and no one even knew he was bit. They took no responsibility saying that he must not have cried. I will post pictures, but the bite marks were so deep I would have cried. Obviously, there was no disinfection or documentation. To make it worse, there was no documentation from when he was bit the first time. They kept trying to tell me that it’s natural for 2 yr olds to bite. I am not worried about what the 2 yr old did. I’m worried about what the adults did not do! No accountability. I don’t care about the state laws on ratios– there are too many kids in the room (17 I found out later) for the 2 teachers. It is not safe. I am disgusted at their responses to a concerned mother.

I took my child here two days. I will not take him back again. There was a teacher who would yell at the kids constantly, and even told one little child she was done with her for the day because she made the teacher mad. Mind you, this was 8:00 am in the morning!!! She would yell at them with me, a parent, in the room so who knows what else happens when no parents are there. She was yelling at the children about picking up their toys, and the way she was doing it was disgusting. She even came to another room, and was mad because two children forgot their backpacks in her classroom. She tossed the backpacks down, and gave dirty looks. This is a grown woman in her 40’s or 50’s. I truly can’t believe parents leave their children with this particular teacher. I understand a classroom full of 4 yr olds isn’t an easy job. However, if you can’t handle it, find another job! I would never recommend this place to any parent who loves their child, and wants a positive learning environment. If you don’t mind ur child being put down, yelled at, pointed out for their mistakes, and degraded by a grown woman, then by all means leave your child here.

I love this school. They are so good to my children. The teachers are so patient and polite. I love that they focus on teaching life-​lessons. The things our kids will need for the rest of their life, whether it is sharing, playing well with others or handling a situation when someone does something you do not like. My son told me yesterday that we walk away when someone is being mean. It was great, at home he wants to agrue with his sister that she is mean. Hopefully soon we will see this change here too.
