Worst daycare ever!!! If you care about your children’s well being please do not put them in this place. The director is rude, unprofessional, calls her staff ghetto, and talks about them to parents and talks about parents to staff. She gets offended if you ask certain things pertaining to your children. Half of her staff is not certified or educated like the girl with the red hair, Evelyn. She has no certifications to work there. Ask about certifications if you choose this place. Im sure the director will get an attitude and tell you off thinking you are trying to tell her how to do her job. Ha! What a joke. Staff doesn’t properly watch children. I have plenty of pictures of how my child has come home from this place, from scratches that look like they’re from a cat’s claws, to what looks like bug bites, rashes in places that rashes should not be if properly changed. Jennifer Dempski, the director, will say how she is «doing the parents a favor» with all of the things she claims she does. Half of her staff she says she wants to fire. If you don’t believe me on how unprofessional and nasty she is, walk in there curious about childcare, one day, one hour, and you will see. Take my word and pay for quality childcare, this is not it! And in the mornings she will have all of the children together in one room for hours, newborns, toddlers, and school age children. Which is against DCFS standards… Also, if you have children under 2 years old, children who, by doctors orders, should not have anything other than whole milk, the director will tell you she buys what she wants and will give it to your child because she claims there’s no difference. I have witnessed her boyfriend, the guy who wears small shorts around the daycare looking lost, I’ve witnessed him return a ridiculous amount of milk to the local Walmart, down the street from the daycare, after DCSF had paid the center a visit… Im guessing to make it look like they do the right thing??? I don’t understand how anyone could think I could make all of this up. I have pictures and many text messages that talk down on her staff, her customers, and the government agency that pays her for childcare calling them out of their name. I keep everything. I also have messages from her that state when she had«went off» on a mother who was, from her words«yelling at their child». It’s absolutely amazing how one could still be in business after such crappy service. For your child’s sake, steer clear. But if you do not believe me I encourage you to go in for an inquiry and you will see what I mean, and if you do put your children in there, do random pop ups. You will see the staff on their phone, on tablets, and not paying attention to the children or you will hear them screaming at the children like they are their own. Horrible. And to top it off, my child has emergency medication. When I forgot to pick up the prescription one day, incase anything happened, I told the director and her words to me were«don’t worry about it, if your child has an allergic reaction I will stab him with another child’s pen». I freaking kid you not! WORSTEXPERIENCEEVER!!!

Great new facility that still offers home cooked meals, caring and attentive teachers, and a comprehensive curriculum. My children love going here… I can hardly get them to come home with me.
