  • Definitely not capable of watching anybody child. Staff thinks they can do and say whatever they want to. Definitely reported to the BBB.. SONJA AND JONES NEED TO BE GONE.. Staffing doing hair and its a beauty shop it's a daycare.. SMH. Just don't understand these people in here. Can't take no more unprofessionalism. THIS PLACE NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN

  • Parents BEWARE!! Not a good daycare for young children. My 3 year old was hit with a ruler by a teacher here. The situation was handled poorly by staff and the director. The toddler room teacher who hit my child with a ruler is still employed by the center. I would not recommend this daycare to any parent.

What ages does THE CHILDRENS FIRST LEARNING CENTER accept?
