To be honest, I’m really torn about this place. The staff seems like they genuinely care about the kids, but I'm super stressed lately about the facility side of things. I went down a rabbit hole and saw they've had quite a few violations on their health inspections over the last few years—like 30 of them? That is a huge red flag for a daycare, especially with little ones who put everything in their mouths. Since it’s an older building in the Austin area, I was already worried about the ventilation, but seeing that they’ve struggled with inspections makes me wonder about the deeper cleaning habits and how they handle pests or mold. It's a convenient spot, but for what we pay, it shouldn't feel like a gamble every time a stomach bug or some other illness goes around the classroom. I'm definitely keeping a closer eye on things, but I’m looking at other options for next year.
