I have used this provider for less than 6 months

My 2 year old and 4 year old both attended this daycare and is by far the worst decision we’ve ever made. This daycare is ghetto, and unprofessional. The teacher Gloria in the toddlers room was neglecting my 2 year old, leaving her in poop diapers and never wiping her face when she had boogers, so it would be dried up all over her face. There was one time when my daughter had a 103 fever and went to pick her up, and my daughter was found in the corner of the room by herself and extremely red. No explanation given.
There were many days when we were called to come pickup our daughter or daughters due to one having a “fever” in which they did not. We’ve taken our daughter to the doctors as well each time and have been told that they are perfectly fine and have no fever. They just don’t want to watch or deal with that specific child is all.
My daughter has also been bitten several times, has had blood on her face and has come home with bruises on her head or body. She even had scratches one day going down her back with a handprint welt.
They will twist words and situations and turn it around on you as if it was your fault and will not take ownership of their actions.
My wife and I both work and the day we dropped them off my wife got a call to pickup my 2 year old stating that she had a fever of 100. When I arrived after having to call off work Gloria told me that my daughter was perfectly fine and that she was comfortable at daycare. I said no and told them that it was the last time my girls were going to attend there.
I was then yelled at by Gloria and threatened that she was going to call cps on my kids.
I’m sorry but with the way this daycare is ran cps should be contacted against them.
