  • Do not place your child here !!!!!! To start off just a few days ago a 4 year old child got out of the class and was found by a stranger in the street and brought back to the daycare!!!!! Imagine if that was your child and you drop your child off to daycare thinking they are safe and being watched! Each class has at least 2 teachers and a million cameras so the fact that she got out and walked by every single class room , past the front office, past the long parking lot with cameras and out the gate to the street is beyond me. Now as for my child the first class he was in didn’t work out. He had 2 teachers ….1 that was super sweet and you could tell she really was a teacher and not there to collect a check. …… and the other that always has an attitude but changes her face when in front of directors. These teachers allowed my child to get completely butt naked when he was having a melt down and did absolutely nothing to stop him. (Not sure why he did this because he has never done this at home)……Their answer was well we didn’t want to touch him but they touched him to put his clothes on. We had a meeting to see how we could help my son adjust to the class. I did everything they told me to do but when I had requests to help they said they would but at the end all my requests except 1 (because I was persistent) were never met. I made them change him to a new class since they decided they are changing my son from full time to part time to see how he does in the new class room. He did soooo good he loved his teachers the environment was dif you could tell he was in a class that he loved and they loved him. But when I wanted to change him back to full time and did my research …. Called my voucher payeee and found out they have been reporting that my son has been attending the daycare full time when he has been part time since he has started because of them. I would get calls almost every single day to pick my child up. The class he was first in called me almost every single day to pick him up because they had no patience. When he was in the second class I had no phone calls it was like day and night. My son loved his new teachers. This daycare has been stealing money from the government by saying he was attending full time the entire time when they should have been reporting the actual schedule they had him on. The voucher payee told me they will contact daycare and do their investigation. After that my son got terminated from this daycare. When I called the voucher payeee they said nothing but bad things and was suggested to remove my kids from this daycare because they have gotten nothing but problems from this daycare. I could go on and on but please my kids and I went through the torture so you don’t have to ! This school does not help….. they act like they are trying to be really are not !!!!!!!!

  • Great teachers, but a lazy head director. When my son use to go here the center use to always smell like a whole toilet. My child was always sick and if you have a special needs child this is not the place for support, they will torture you until you willingly take your child out of that school. The teachers were sweet and do there best. Well some of teachers, especially with very little support.

  • I have been totally satisfied with the quality of care my child receives at Crispus Attucks. All of her teachers have been great! The entire staff has been friendly and more than helpful and attentive to not only my childs needs but also to any questions or concerns that I might have. For this to be my first experience with any child care service, I am thus far very happy and I trust this center with the most important person to me, my baby!
