when I was in need of childcare for my strange hours at work, I began canvassaying the yellowpages for thoes agencies that offered after hour care.
I found only a few in Arlington and this place happend to be one of them. Of course I visited the place without giving them notice that I was comming and I was pretty much outraged at what I saw. Although there were not overt acts of abuse or neglect or anything that serious.
I did see a delapidated facilities that smelled like bleach. Many children running around aimlesly with only a few children to take care of them and I also notice some employees watching television. Yes thats right they were not watching the children, they were watching TV..
It was snack time and the children gathered for their snack of a cream filled cookie and some red juice.
I do not recomend this facility to anyone. It seems as they treat the children as chattel.
