Appleseed was a fine establishment and even had a waiting list to get your child in back when ms.pat was running the place. Now it is the opposite. They have immediate openings. The new management is doing such a poor job of running the place that they consolidated down to one building and that is not even full anymore. The new manager deligates her duties to three incompitant supervisors, one of which truly seems to enjoy firing the white employees. There are a number of good employees at appleseed but there are also a few deadbeats still remaining. I have heard of child abuse reports, children wondering off and undetected for long periods and I have personally experienced teachers changing diapers and not washing their hands before attending to another child. Even after reporting what I saw with my own eyes, the problem still remains. The management has a attitude about themselves that makes you feel like your questions and concerns are just a bother too them. We have just removed our 17 month old son because this place is becoming disgusting. There will always be concerns when putting your child in daycare but this place has gotten so bad in the last year that we just could not stand it anymore. The new manager is running the place into the ground and I predict that appleseed will be gone by sometime next year. They have a male employee at appleseed that I thought I recognized, sure enough after doing some lenghtly homework, it turns out that this guy is a convict. He was convicted of embezzlement just a couple years back. Seems to me that appleseed is pretty desperate if they have to hire people like that to work for them.\r
Do your self a big favor and put your children anyplace but appleseed.
Pros: You might get lucky enough to get one of the good teachers
Cons: This management group could care less about anything but your payments
