Cassandra Bremner · 1/5 on Google · 7 years agoI wouldn't suggest this place to my WORSE ENEMY. Many kids come and go FOR A REASON. Save yourself the money and STRESS. Don't even put your baby in here they WILL neglect them!! My story is more than a whole paragraph. They always have openings cause I'm not the only one talking they baby out! I'm just the first to say something 👎
