This was a terrible experience for both myself and my children. My son attended the pre-school portion 3 days a week for 2 hrs and the daycare portion the other days. The daycare portion I felt like the "teachers" were ONLY there to make sure the children didn't hurt themselves or others. There was no structure. Almost everyday there would be kids in all different rooms (including the hallway). I NEVER knew any of the 8 different teachers on a first name bases. Any time I had a question they were clueless.

My daughter (6) had to take an hr long drive on the bus from kindergarten to the daycare that was only 5 minutes from one another. When she would arrive at the daycare she was forced to eat alone then take a nap. I don't feel as though a 6 yr old should still be ordered to take naps. Nap time would be over at 3 and she would get picked up at 4 pm. I was paying a weekly fee for lunch and nap time.

Even though the pre-school was run by the same people as the daycare I had to pay two separate bills.

They also except CCIS (which I had) however their math was unexplained. The center I had then in before in Oxford was $196 a week and Mechanics Grove was $169. I paid $35 a week at the Oxford center and $50 a week at Mechanic's Grove. That included their church's financial aid. It was never explained why a center that cost more a week charged me less. This was my ONLY option for a center so I had no choice.

Both of my children did not like the center, however it was my ONLY option available in the area. My son now goes to Barnsely Academy (a brand new center) it is great the teachers and staff are wonderful!
