What parents say
I wanted to like this place and this review is long over due. This isn’t a place for special needs kids unless you already have an assigned therapist. The teachers here do not know how to work with kids with special needs. They’ll call you if things become too challenging for them. They complain about behavior. They lack the resource of understanding. It’s honestly sad. I had one teacher tell me it wasn’t my time to…
Ashley · 1/5 on Google · 8 months agoStaffing and teachers are very unprofessional and lacks on proper communication. I would rate -1 star. My son was newly diagnosed with Autism, he is 4 years old.

Jessica Arias · 1/5 on Google · a year ago3 stars based on site itself, security, seems safe, clean inside, outside. Communication isn’t good, you need to stay persistent. I was a new parent coming in but was treated almost like a criminal, wasn’t comforting, you’d think it would be considering your bringing your children there, I thought they would want to reassure you with kindness, director seems stiff, teacher’s seemed timid of director, no one looked…
RICHMOLIA · 3/5 on Google · 2 years agoThe teachers are useless; they're just people who work for the money. They don't like what they do. My son has autism, and they don't know how to deal with children like that. They're constantly calling us for assistance. I don't recommend them. The teachers are useless, especially the younger ones. I hope someday they'll hire people with experience who care for and treat the children better.
