    I took a tour with my husband and the place was disgusting. When I walked into the baby room they had a baby still in its car seat in a pin sleeping like that. At least pretend to care when you have people touring.

    I can’t say enough great things about the staff here. My daughter has been enrolled here since she was 18 months old. She is now almost 7 years old. She loves going to BBPS before and after school to play and learn with her school age friends. Lisa, Ramona, Micheala, Nicole, Dorian, Rusty, and Kella ( just to name a few) are always there to greet you with a smile and help you in any way they can to maximize your child’s enjoyment at their facility. My daughter loves their summer camp program and will be attending this summer again. Would recommend this facility to anyone and also have many friends who’s children are already enrolled their. If you are looking for a warm, loving, and educational environment for your children, this is the place to go!!!!

    Super unprofessional, director and faculty have no boundaries when it comes to inappropriate comments and their only way of handling situations is to disenroll your child, to effectively "get rid" of the problem, instead of dealing with the situation they created. Also very poor building security, can essentially walk in and grab any child you see without ever being noticed. Faculty walks around barefoot, with belly shirts showing mid drifts, and left my child unsupervised in a room alone at one point. Horrible center, do not waste your time.

    Their director, Lisa, punished my child by expulsion to do a conflict between her and I, and her only idea to fix the problem, was to disenroll my child without mentioning it me, his stepmother, only by calling his biological mother and informing her he’s been disenrolled. Other inappropriate incidents include Lisa stating to me "you look just like the child's biological mom, dad must have a type" , which is completely nonprofessional, and not a child care director's place to say. So the outcome to my 4 year old's experience, was a expulsion not even after 2 weeks of service. The school also called and notified me of my 4 year old getting sick before this, and needed to be picked up asap. Upon my arrival, I found my 4 year old alone in his classroom, lights off, no supervision whatsoever, no toys, just sitting there in solitude, without any other supervisors in sight in the hallway or elsewhere. He was sitting in a cot, staring at the doorway I just walked into, wondering how long he was going to be in the dark alone, on a cheap cot on the floor, that they charge a ridiculous rate for to "rent". I picked him up, left the room, left the premises. His classroom teacher that should've been in there with him, just proved that due to their lack of supervision and negligence, that absolutely anybody can walk in the door, down the hallways of other classrooms, grab your child, and leave the center, without ever being seen or stopped. What a warm and fuzzy feeling.
