Learning Care reviews

Management is horrible, district office workers are rarely working (come in at 1030, leave at 12, come back at 2, leave at 430). We've been short-staffed since I got here and management will make you come into work even if you're sick with a fever or throwing up. Benefits are minimal and expensive, my paycheck for two weeks came out to be less than half of what my gross income for that pay period would've been. You can barely get a raise, you have to basically threaten with another job offer to get one. Very stingy on overtime and hours too. Very corporate mindset.

*First of all, ignore these clearly planted glorious reviews. It's a huge red flag if there are compliments in the Cons section. It is my opinion that this Company is adding fraudulent reviews...what's worse, they aren't even good at it. *You are NOT a Teacher, you are a Babysitter *Despicable pay. I honestly still cannot believe how hard I worked for so little. *Equally disappointing benefits. When I needed antibiotics (generic, not name brand), a State Assistance card gave me a better discount. *They have an iPad App that you will be required to update constantly with ZERO free time to do so. In addition, you will need to update an archaic sheet, because what is better than taking your eyes off the kids even longer to re-do the same work?? *Ratios, Texas is 2nd to the worst in the Country, but I've been told they're terrible even in California, where the ratio's are almost half. *Special Needs, Learning Disabilities & Physical Disabilities should ABSOLUTELY be considered in Ratio's *No bottled water. That's all I'm going to say about this. *Work Orders are fulfilled in a timely manner....roughly a year. "Locked" doors were unlocked for at least 2 months, damaged playground equipment never fixed going on 5 months. *Strange choice of Food & Snacks (not healthy at all or too healthy for children's tastes)- boiled eggs, granola, bean crackers, cream of wheat, lentils, wheat pasta, black beans, soy crumbles, processed oil cheese with saltines, plain pancakes and hummus...Who's Hungry?? *Don't expect company created emergency plans to consider child safety, the focus is always on liability. Your Director will probably be forced to come up with the best plan(s) *Lesson Plans are disappointing in that they have little thought and creativity put in to create them - I'm pretty positive my 4 year olds could have put together better activities. They are somewhat engaging but far from educational. *Zero room for growth. This is the peak. *I'm left to assume not a one person making decisions about the "classroom" has ever been in one before.
