I am a direct neighbor to this "business"...literally right next door. Not only myself but many many others have personally witnessed this owner Joyce berate, constantly yell at the top of her lungs, play favorites, antagonize the children and even instigate issues that could have easily been resolved otherwise. Ive seen this for over 10 years throughout her different name changes and issues. I have witnessed her yank kids up by their arms and had to fight urges to say something to her or some sort of authority in these matters. I can and will not hold my tongue any longer and will tell every parent personally I see that wants to talk about the issue. Sometimes I have a hard time differentiating who is the adult and who is the child the way she approaches a bad situation. She smiles in the face of her customers but changes her tune drastically as soon as parents leave. It is quite obvious it is just a paycheck to her. From one parent to another, I would never ever ever put my child in this "daycare" where the kids are barely watched and treated this way, nor would I ever think of recommending this place to anyone. It has been shut down before and most likely will be again, only a matter of time. So whether you'd just like to prepare for the inevitable or reconsider choosing this place I wanted to let you know. If you want to talk to me in person, I live right across the driveway and can let you speak with other witnesses of her care or lack there of. The lady Wendy that works for her on Wednesdays and some other random times is great, part of the reason I have yet to speak up about this. If you already have kids here, find solace in that fact that not every employee is horrible, just the owner.

This a small daycare that gives your child one on one attention and education essential for kindergarten readiness. Another home away from home for my son. I recommend Mrs Joyce, you won't be disappointed!
