I liked the individual teachers but the management is awful. My son has encopresis a condition in which he does not have voluntary control of his bowel movement and they made him sit in his soiled underwear for 30 minutes or more until myself or my husband could come change him and they forced us to change him outside or in our car in the freezing cold. He was also turned away for having a limp I didnt see a limp, my husband didnt see a limp and nor did his doctor and was told he couldnt return until he was evaluated. And managements explanation was well it could be a joint infection .. really a joint infection which she saw in maybe one child and is an extremely rare occurrence!?!? It was extremely early in the morning. How about he was just tired!?! He then was forced to go to the school aged center even though we didnt want to send him to Kindergarten because we didnt feel he was developmentally ready. The school age center was worse. They sat him front of the screen the entire time watching age inappropriate content on YouTube. We asked them not to give him any screen time and were told well if he acts up you will have to come get him. Friends of ours who also took their child there furthermore found him outside of the facility unsupervised. He was 5 and had severe ADHD and now we found out he has level 1 ASD. These facilities are not at all equipped to handle not only children with special needs but I would argue any child. I am so regretful of having taken him and kept him in this daycare. After leaving he has had continued negative self talk and self deprecating comments and I believe much of this stemmed from the mistreatment at the hands of his care providers and a lack of watchful eye in a social environment he was not yet developmentally ready for. Steer clear parents!!!

Oh how I miss this place! Mrs. Woodruff, Mrs. Lala , Mrs. Jessica and Mr.Payton were Awesomely Amazing. Sorry I forgot a lot of names. I cant forget the front desk staff. Great!!! Great Great!!!! I have no complaints. As a mom its hard to trust people with your child. I had no problems & if I did, it was handled. Thank you for all you do, a great experience, the communication, cleanliness, security, teaching, patience and so much more.

The daycare on Fort Jackson used to be pretty decent, but ever since Sunny Bolton became director, the atmosphere changed for the worse.
Hey, Sunny.how about I write this review down on a sheet of paper for you?
