No way I’ll be so clam. I had my baby in daycare. When I got there to pick her up, she had a ringing wet spoil diaper on and clothes all wet and nasty. I had her diaper bag packed with 4 changing outfits, 6 pampers, wipes, PLUS I had just dropped off a case of pampers, wipes, and 3 outfits to stay at the daycare that morning I dropped her off. I showed my royal a*s demanding to speak with the director telling her she didn’t have a problem with getting my money so this was very much unacceptable! They tried to changed her, but I was so mad and crying, when they saw.my face they knew not to touch her. Then this other child bite her on the arm. They called me on my job to tell me about it. When I got there they met me at the door with her. This type of thing here, that place a be closed down until I got some answers.
Where are the cameras??? I would
Be screaming for answers as well 🙏 God, please heal this innocent baby
Probably got his hand stuck in the cookie jar
