Pros

None! There is nothing positive about this whole operation

Cons

The staff was rude and not willing to work with us about anything. They told my wife that "nobody likes her" and were not willing to talk to me about anything. when marks were found on my son they blamed us for it. There is no way this day care should be in operation. The whole place was rude and arrogant. And that is how they treated us when my wife worked for them. Imagine how they will act when your just a customer.
