Quality Child Care 6/2/2011

As any parent knows, finding quality childcare can be a daunting task. Before my first child was born I visited many child care centers wanting to find just the right place for my newborn. When I came upon Ladybug I immediately knew I had found what I was looking for, a loving and nurturing environment that makes learning fun and praises the uniqueness of each child. My children, ages 7 and 3, initially began as infants at the Chaska center and now attend the Waconia center and LOVE IT. The building has been thoughtfully designed making it warm and inviting and my children talk endlessly about the adventures they have in the unique outdoor play areas. more

AWEFUL! 6/24/2009

This center is the worst center in town! Management mistreats their employees - verbally abuses them, creates a hostile work environment, and don't try to be friends with each other, because then your accused of gossiping. The teachers only stay because ""they"" love the children - ironically it's the centers motto, but management doesn't follow it! HIGH turn over in staff, and because of that your child gets shuffled from one room to the next to try to keep the rooms in ratio. Even if it means your 2yr old sits in the infant room all day - with no other toddlers or toddler toys! Or your 2yr old moves to Proddler room with 3yr olds. Inconsistancies with following policies! Never post curiculms for the parents! They do have a big beautiful center, but don't be fooled. They like parents that drop their kids off, and pay their tuition. They want no interaction with families and discourage their emiployees to become friendly with the families. If this is your lifestyle, this is the place for you. If your like me, and love your child and want to know how your child is doing and WHAT they're doing, look elsewhere! Director believes in what she calls ""natural consequences"". I've seen 1st hand kids outside in the winter time getting coats put on them - because they didn't cooperate inside and were ""holding up the class"" to go out. So it's ""natural"" to get cold and thus become cooperative! If your child doesn't lay down at nap time, they restrain your child by laying their arm over their back and applying to pressure to keep them down - yet their not 'allowed' to rub your childs back to console them to sleep! Again - their motto ""for the love of children"" - is that love? Don't be fooled like me. I loved their LARGE center and individual play grounds, but my children suffered the price of their poor standards and their failure to follow licensing procedures. An employees own infant missed a feeding under their care - and no one did anything about it! Another employees infant recieved another childs breastmilk. This center is run poorly and if employees (and families alike) get too involved, they get let go. 10 Families to date have been ""let go"" by this center for ""caring about their children"" and talking to teachers about the issues and concerns they have. Apparently if you have a concern or an issue, your not welcome anymore. BEWARE! There are better centers - might not be as fancy, but money NEVER did by you happiness now did it? Think of your children and how they will be treated here before you enroll. Pros: Big center Cons: Poor Management more
