Pros

The children are amazing, so are the parents and co teachers. I love how the classes flow and how ready the children are to learn.

Cons

We almost never got our ten minute breaks, I was thrown into being a float teacher without anyone asking me if that was okay and they took me out of my primary classroom. I put my notice in as I was moving and gave them 2 Months notice, in my final two weeks they treated me terribly. This work environment is incredibly manipulative, if you call out sick they get mad at you for putting them in a bind but legally you can’t work while sick. I was once throwing up and my boss said “well do you have a fever” I do not recommend working here at all. It broke my heart to leave, but I felt so relieved when I did because this job broke my spirit. They also went against covid-19 Guidelines constantly.

Pros

there was nothing good about working here

Cons

they did not listen to their staff they only cared about what the parents saw. they over work and undertrain. i had no training going into this job and i became a lead teacher without a raise and without being told. suddenly i was in a room with a bunch of toddlers all alone. they also don’t give any grace to the teachers everything needs to be perfect. the owners and admin give attitude when you ask for help and even when you call out sick they try to get you to come in. this job was so mentally draining i still have anxiety just thinking about it
