Parents' Comments
Parent #1
Teachers need to be watching the children. There should be two teachers to everyone classroom inside the classroom and outside on the playground. No one teacher should be alone due to 13 to 15 children to one teacher its hard for the etacher to control all of them.Always two teachers shows that a daycare cares about both the children and their teachers.

Contrary to what is claimed on the website, no reports are sent home other than for the 2 yr olds on what they did. They do not post menu's, so you have no way of knowing what your child has eaten. They make up rules and then don't follow them. They are supposedly on the Fed Food program now, but tuition has gone up rather than down and my child is hungry in the afternoon. Signed up for the voluntary pre-k - other centers are offering DEEP discounts in tuition, not Rainbow - they are discounting tuition by $15 a week. I can't stand this place and will be so glad to leave it. Everything caters to CCC and I don't mean this ugly, but that lowers the standard of the school. They cater to those whose day care is subsidized. The teachers stand around and chat while the kids run wild. A friend went with me one day to pick up my child. While I was in - she said there was a child on the playground repeadedly hitting and kicking another child - so hard the hurt child bent over double. She said a teacher never came. My child has been going there for years - it started out ok - but it has gone down hill every year. I'm just holding on until Kindergarten
