I was sold on the sweet talk about their advocacy for disabled children. That was a LIE. The moment my daughter had a bad day, I was SCOLDED and made very aware that we were not welcome any longer. Kids have bad days, but after 6 weeks of being at this facility, I hoped for better.I didn't want to believe the reviews, but they're true. My daughter can't speak for herself, so I had to be vigilant. They breed dogs and when you walk in it is a store... her daughter sells her MLM products. I hate that I didn't listen to other parents!

Good professional people. It amazes me when parents with unruly ,kids always want to call out the schools and the daycares for their problems instead of owning up to their own personal parent failure.

Do not, I repeat, do not send your kids to this place. Supposedly they specialize in children with disabilities, but, they will embarrass and try to intimidate the parents of children with disabilities about the behavior of those children. I will be checking into their credentials soon. I also will be checking on their training, their Affiliated Church, their facilities, how they get away with running a daycare out of their home, and whether or not they have a license or not. Update to follow.Also, if you read the reviews you will see the positive reviews are years old and there has been basically nothing positive for the last few years. Not sure why but this place definitely is not for your kids

My son was 3 or 4 when he attended here. He wasn’t happy there, which could have been because he had never been in a daycare type setting before, but I’m just finding out it’s illegal for them to accept anyone under the age of 5 years old. Concerning. A lot has come to light about this place and I hope there’s a thorough investigation.

I haven't read through all of these other reviews yet, but I believe it!My 3 children have gone there for about a year. Originally only 1 day a week and in the summer 2.I just got a phone call this afternoon That my youngest can no longer come bc another kid her age but a few months older has joined full time so she has to find a new place..... but my other two can come...."Phylis I'm not taking my kids to two different places, that makes zero sense. Why am I just being told with no warning? I have 1 day to find some place. ""I've been telling you all along this would happen I just didn't know when. ""No ma'am, this is the first I'm hearing of it at all and that she's "too young" bc all you said two months prior to it starting was that you needed to know what days and how many to hold their spots, which I gave you immediately."So now I need two days of child care, specific days, and I don't know what to do. I'm paid in advance and told her i needed that money back immediately. She'll get back to me about it? That's not Christian behavior. You give notice when it isn't the person or their children's fault!I've always had issues with Jessica as well. Very rude. Very odd. I was not told before starting they had to be there by a certain time in the morning, I don't work until 10 or 11... but my kids had to be there and settled in before 845am! I didn't even need to be awake yet so it wrecked my week every week trying to get up early just for that.My kids often said they hated going but I brushed it off thinking they were just not wanting to keep getting up earlier. (We are not morning people here, especially with my work schedule). Now I know it was them.And the food thing! They wouldn't let my kids eat all of their food, told them they had to choose only two things and everything i packed was always a problem. Always. I truly thought it was just us and somehow I was missing something and a bad mom.I'm so irritated right now. We have no other options for those two days. We moved from out of state and can't afford more?I guess better they aren't going but goodness!

This facility let a Staff members daughters abuse my niece and the staff berated my nephew for having a medical condition we were assured they could accommodate. They had to do no extra work for this accommodation, they were just asked to allow him to use the restroom as needed. Both were told they were the problem and when my sister went to them with concerns she was dismissed over and over. They have removed hers and many other parents Facebook reviews stating that their children were also abused physically and mentally. Please do not send your children to this facility.

My grandson went. Boy did they pull the wool over our eyes. I thought it was going to be a wonderful place for my grandson. My daughter being a single parent and my grandson witnessing the trauma she went through left her trying to heal and getting her son help for his ADHD and PTSD. Promising they could help because her daughter went through the same thing. Well they made my grandson worse. I would take him to her daycare/summer camp and he would grab a hold of my leg begging for me not to leave him. It was heart breaking. Then he started speaking up and telling his mommy what he was going through. We found a family friend to watch him until she could get him into a QUALIFIED daycare. On my grandson last day he overheard us talking about it was going to be his last day. So he told the owner and her daughter that it was his last day due to the way he was being treated. These two ladies decided that when my daughter picked him that they would verbally attack my daughter in front of him in parking area. That’s not professional. They deleted my comment from their Facebook review but they will not do it here. Please do not take your children to this place. God warns us false prophets coming in his name. Protect your babies. Please. My grandson is doing wonderful now and is thriving and it is not because of them.

After sitting down and discussing concerns with the owner and her daughter about my son who has an autoimmune condition being told he needed to eat ALL of his food and was being wasteful with food and wasteful with a paper plate he didn’t even ask for, the owner took a picture of my sons plate and said she was going to send it to me to show me he didn’t eat his entire meal. He was told, and if you tell your mom you ate it all, you are liar. My son has digestive issues that do not allow for him to digest food and his stomach was hurting. Granted, this is food that we provide everyday for our children. The camp does not. He has also asked to go to the bathroom but was told it was not bathroom time and was not allowed to go despite the owner knowing about his condition through direct conversation and through his medical paperwork.Last week, my daughter was kicked and another girl was slapped in the face by the owners granddaughter. When I asked if the parents of the other child made aware of the incident the response was “I’m sure they were they have been coming here for years.” What is the relevance to the duration the child has been attending camp? She was slapped in the face. A phone call should have occurred when the incidence occurred. My daughter was afraid to speak up to the owners daughter because it was obvious through our conversation that she is rude and condescending even with a parent present. I can’t imagine how she is with the children when parents aren’t around. It is obvious that she enjoys asserting a position of power while conversing with a 10 year old girl who came in today bravely to address concerns, once she was encouraged by me that she would remain safe. My 10 year old daughter was mature while the owners daughter sat across the table making faces at her. Which I instructed her to stop, immediately. She explained why she was afraid to tell the owners daughter that her child kicked her- that other children have complained and nothing has changed and she felt intimidated and scared. There was ZERO accountability taken for anything. The only thing that the owners daughter was concerned about was if there were other children in the camp who did wrong besides her own? That is DEFLECTING and avoiding any accountability for what her daughter did. How is that an appropriate question to ask a child who is bringing a concern to you about your child kicking them and attempting to hit them and also slapping another child in the face? The only thing my daughter knew is that this child was the only camper that was physical with her. The owner wanted to reference the longevity of the children who come to camp as if that was supposed to address any of the reasons why we were meeting today. Neither of these adults took ownership for their actions. The mission on the website says that they empower children physically, mentally, and emotionally, and the way the owners daughter spoke to my daughter- was quite the contrary of emotional empowerment. These women claim to be leaders and Christians. Leaders lead by example. They don’t assert unnecessary power and threaten children with physical illnesses to eat every bite of their meal, and they certainly do not condone physical abuse. The saddest part is that there are so many children at the camp who are afraid to speak up to these women about ANY concerns- for fear of retaliation. Some parents do not have other options for childcare, but thank GOD we do! The owner gossips about children and their families that attend camp. She also questions children’s race and ethnicity. Parents talk to one another about other concerns, and some go back because they don’t have a choice for childcare or are actively arranging other options. They can run from their problems, claim to be Christians while living in denial, and block me and my husband on Facebook- but hopefully through this review, people can see what is going on at this camp. Physical and emotional abuse! Read the Google reviews.? continued on the next review

If I could leave Zero, I would.They remove your reviews off of their Facebook page too!My son attended the daycare a few years ago and I told them he was dealing with ADHD/trauma from seeing me be abused. Phyllis reassured me that her daughter, who also works there, was going through something similar and they could certainly give my son the love and help he needed to work through those things.This was a total lie. On multiple occasions they called my son annoying and problematic in front of him.They isolated him, in a room, with no adult supervision (he was 3 going on 4 maybe?).He was always “in trouble”.If you have an adhd child you know all they need is some redirection and patience.Not to mention I’m a gentle parent and they certainly don’t believe in that.My son overheard my frustrations and knew when his last day was coming. He openly told them it was his last day and that he was leaving because his mom said they weren’t treating him well.Well that day when I went to pick him up they came running out to my car and started yelling at me, in front of other children and mine, that he was a bad child and that now they were going to have to do damage control with the other parents because the other children overheard him.I pulled out of that driveway and never looked back.Do NOT send your child here expecting love and patience and understanding.

Terrible place please for the sake of your child choose somewhere else! My child was called a liar made fun of, refused bathroom breaks (my child has a disorder causing him to use the bathroom more frequent) he was told not to waste a paper plate. And was called a wasteful liar by one of the staff. We have removed our child from here. And will be seeking Legal advice.

I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone, The verbal abuse my daughter has gotten from this place is uncalled for she has stood up for another student an was called a liar an to stop tattle telling after the owners granddaughter was abusing other kids. This not a Christian camp it's been ran like a boot camp hopefully justice will be served.

One of the few places left where kids can be kids and hang out with farm animals. How many people can say their day care had sheep, goats, and horses.
