Terribly Managed and Negative Environment

Pros

The kids are what kept me there for almost two years. I love them all and it was a privilege to watch them grow.

Cons

Where to start. First of all, the management was terrible. It was very clear they were in it for the money. Classrooms were way over ratio to the point where babies had to be in a buggy all day long and rotated out for naps and bottles. Kids were constantly moved into rooms for other ages to stay in ratio, so teachers didn't always know who they had in their care because it was always different. Also, a lot of the kids weren't developmentally ready for the room they moved up to, but had to move up so they could bring in even more kids. The owner yelled at employees regularly for things out of their control. Staff had to use a clip chart management system that is ineffective and shame based. Teachers yelled at toddlers and preschoolers regularly and in front of other students. The turnover rate was CRAZY. I worked there nearly two years and saw people go in and out in like 2 months. Stay away.

Pros

During the pandemic, there were not a lot of places where I could get my feet wet teaching at an in-person setting. Of course, childcare centers were an exception, so I ended up here. Curriculum provided in books monthly, but I did have to write lesson plans, as well.

Cons

Always was pushed to the most children I could legally watch. Hours are very long, not enough prep time often because “prep time” is also the children’s nap time, and not all children nap. We also were responsible for taking photos and uploading them during the day to an app for parents - several photos or entries a day for meals, activities, bathrooming, etc. which was very time consuming (especially when it was a poorly designed app), which took away from instruction time. Not only that, we also had to input observations about their learning. No benefits were offered or provided (health insurance etc) - the only thing I ever heard was 10% off of your child’s tuition. Very high turnover rate for teachers.
