Pros

The benefits seem great and the children are lovely.

Cons

It almost seems like they don’t really care for their employees. The schedule is flaky and the centers are revolving doors for staff. Paperwork is more important than the actual care of the students. Management is more worried about you showing up for work regardless of emergencies (such as major injuries).

Pros

The kids and families are amazing. It’s so rewarding to go into work and watch a baby learn to walk or a toddler begin to learn their colors and know that I had a part in that. Watching the kids grow and learn was the absolute best part of the job.

Cons

There were a lot of safety concerns. Staff were not all held to the same standard and children were getting hurt because some staff were allowed to slack while others weren’t. I was both parent and staff. My concerns about safety were brushed off by my admin and the district as well. There was favoritism and a lack of training. The pay is also very low. The CEO has never been on the classroom side of childcare and that tells you everything you need to know.
