My niece attends here and I will say this. One of the classrooms has asbestos (they use the classroom for instruction) Some of the classrooms are filthy (mice infestation) They are just now doing something about both issues. I notice how they treat employees differently here upon speaking with a few staff members to get the feel of the place (they claim to be inclusive thats far from the truth). Long story short I spoke with my brother and my niece is leaving this place. I will find better.

This is a great place for a first start to schooling. I loved this place & the teachers for my daughter. This was her Pre-K school and she has truly learned so much. Her growth is phenomenal & it shows so much that she has learned alot from attending this school. The teachers & the teachers assistants are very good with the children. Not only are the teacher good with communication, the school did a wonderful job handling communication with Covid & if there were case present at the school. I appreciate that so much. I had a positive experience with this school & so did my daughter. I do highly recommend this school. My daughter even attend the Seummer Leap proogram at the school & loved it. Keep up the great work!

My son went to preschool at RCN and we loved the program. The teachers and staff really care about the children and are wonderful support for families

Both of my daughters had wonderful experiences at RCN. My oldest daughter went from young toddler to Pre-K with RCN and it has helped shape her ability to accept others who are different and be empathetic to her peers. She had wonderful teachers all the years she was there and comes back to visit as a successful RCN alumni.My youngest daughter was with RCN in the toddler room, she is now in Pre-K, and Ms. Caitlin (her toddler teacher) is still her favorite teacher. She visits her often and we are still in touch. My daughter's experience with her was very positive and loving. Both my daughters were always safe and well taken care of at RCN.

The RCN was the perfect place for our son to go to summer camp. After a rocky year in Kindergarten, he needed a place that would support his social and emotional development. His summer in Ms. Tamra's group was 100% positive. We are so thankful for Tamra and the RCN!

This is not a place you'd want to work. This is NOT where you'd want to send your children.I was there for about 6 months. Throughout the entire period, I worked with a lead teacher, Caitlin, who was not only unprofessional, rude and passive aggressive the majority of the time, but one who followed the rules at her convenience. In fact, she dropped a child and attempted to cover it up by lying on the incident report (Caitlin stated that the child 'slipped and fell' when she dropped him) In fact, I had to convince her to write an incident report before she became angry for insisting. Though I followed procedure on the child's behalf, nothing was done on the part of the daycare and she was able to keep her position. Meanwhile, she would criticize me for being late and making minor mistakes.Caitlin also had the tendency to favor certain children and breaking the rules for the said child. It is against company policy to allow a child to use the blanket of that of another. Yet she allowed one of her favorite children to use another child's blanket to stop her from crying. Remember, this is the same person who reprimanded me for accidentally placing child's blanket in another one's cubbie because it's cold and flu season.We've butted heads a few times due to her hypocrisy I believe this is one of the reasons why she caused me to be terminated. She told the higher ups that I was a physical threat to her when I've nothing to cause her harm. I know this because Lynn, the Director of the Children's Program threatened to "call 911" when I expressed that I was angry about getting fired. If anything, I was angry because 1) I knew Caitlin complained about me to them and 2) this happened on Friday AFTER THEY HAD ME WORK MY ENTIRE SHIFT.Furthermore, the administration does nothing to support the employees who work hard to make sure those children are safe. Between that, the favoritism, the blatant wage theft and violations, it's no wonder why there's a huge employee turnover. Good workers are leaving (or trying to leave) because of the nonsense that goes on behind the scenes and those who have no business working with children are still there just to get a paycheck. Do I need to tell you that, to this day, there's a former Infant Lead Teacher still working there as a Sub even though she shouldn't be there? While an Infant Lead Teacher, Miss Neraida Vega dropped and injured a baby and didn't report it. The parents called the State and RCN did EVERYTHING to cover up the fact that she should have been terminated.Yet they're willing to fire me because I'm a "threat."RCN only cares about money. They don't care about the children or the employees who are still there--unless the employee is a favorite. I urge parents who are reading this to go somewhere else. Your children are NOT safe there. I also urge those looking to work with children to look elsewhere because you will be quitting within a month or so.This place should be shut down.
