ST PAUL CHRISTIAN DAYCARE CENTER

My 20 mo. old daughter has been at this daycare for nearly 6 months now - and I couldn't be happier. The play space for the 1-2 year olds is twice as big as any of the other daycares I've toured. Most importantly, my daughter loves it too. I've never had any of the problems others are mentioning here. Staff is very friendly and responsive and handles screaming and crying kids with professionalism and respect.

Would not recommend this childcare, when you walk into the building there is a horrible smell of mold. The daycare director mentioned there was a water leak and the center had to be closed down for a few months they must not have cleaned it very well. My son was always sick and had a horrible cough for months and was always but up all over his body. Since he has stopped going to the center his bites have gone away and his cough is non existent. I went to pick my son up one day and heard the toddler teacher screaming at the kids from downstairs. I asked the daycare director if she normally talks to the children this way and she said she is probably stressed and we have some high strung kids in that room and that is how she best feels to communicate. Mind you we are talking about 1 and 2 year olds

This place is awful my son came here and he would come home with busted up lips and sun burns and wrong size diapers diapers he wasn’t even supposed to wear due to him being allergic to Huggies and they would put on him, also they would let the toddlers climb down the stairs and they teacher in the toddler/wobbler class would yell at the kids. They are ALWAYS SHORT STAFF not to mention the awful smell they had going on down stairs due to the homeless shelters also state would tell them to fix the building like the (floors) and they NEVER DID. Poor staff looks worn down due to working long days cause they can’t keep staff. I would never take my next child here or anything. NOT TO MENTION THE BABIES DOWN STAIRS WHEN YOU WALK THROUGH THE BUILDING IS ALWAYS SCREAMING CRYING.

I had to pull my son out of this daycare even as a single mom with no daycare lined up I still decided to. They don't follow safety policies and dont have age appropriate toys in rooms. He's been put in the wrong sized diaper. Not all rooms have working cameras and they aren't fixing them. They threatened to expell me when I brought the safety concerns to the staff. You are forbidden to discuss any incident reports with anyone at all. They are hiding things and there are things I'm sure I don't even know. I would be wrong not leaving this review and not warning people. I'm trying to only put one star,but it keeps setting to three ,so just know I'm NOT putting three. If I could I'd put zero stars.

I love this daycare. The directors (Rebecca and Angie) and teachers are so sweet and warm to us parents and children. My daughters teacher’s Kristiana and she’s awesome!! This is the best daycare I’ve come across... better than Children’s Village, WeeCare and wayyyyy better than Learning Avenues 🤮
