Parents' Comments
Parent #1
Strengths-safe, good child/teacher ratio, overall clean

Weaknesses-no structured programs/activities in older infant and toddler classrooms, little interaction between caregivers and children, old and few toys, small rooms don't allow children in infant classrooms much room for tummy time or learning to crawl/walk, I don't believe toys are cleaned regularly
