I am extremely disappointed with this daycare and its director. Expecting my first child, I was excited to have found [redacted], the director of the establishment. She seemed enthusiastic and caring and just what we wanted in a provider. We were excited to send our first born to her, but after telling us that she was moving her daycare center, she mysteriously disappeared on us. I sent multiple emails to her, asking her to confirm the new location and asking her to confirm that she received our paperwork. Once it became clear she was not going to respond to my emails I left her a voice mail. Not surprisingly, I didn't hear back on my voice mail either.
After removing my name from several wait lists in the city because I had found "the perfect place" I had to go back to the drawing board and start my search all over again. Waiting lists in Springfield are typically quite long for infants, so this was stressful to have to begin my search again, this time in my 2nd trimester and with less time before I would need care.
I will state that I think it is probably for the best. As this was all happening, I wondered what kind of business owner would just ignore requests from potential paying customers. I began to do some research on [redacted]'s establishment and found that as of April, 2014, her preschool had multiple violations and as of August, 2014, still has 12 open violations. The most glaring violation was hazardous materials found accessible to children (Lysol spray, thumb tacks and scissors to name a few). I have included a link to the Missouri Department of Health and Human Services that shows all violations for anyone interested in taking a look.
If anyone is considering taking your child here, I would urge you to reconsider. Not only does it have multiple violations, but it speaks volumes to me about the character of a business owner who refuses to contact potential paying customers.
