We felt our son would benefit from a smaller center since he has some behavioral issues which we expressed openly to the director Jessica. Jessica sold us a wonderful story on how she would support our child and not give up, she reassured us that every child is…

There wasn't even a microwave available to warm lunches, which was incredibly inconvenient. One of the most frustrating policies was that parents were…
