[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Families considering the Glover Park Kindercare, be forewarned: the incoming director, Stephanie Strother, is leaving her current post at Penn Quarter Kindercare with a less-than-stellar reputation among both teachers and families. After several incidents at the center, including one in which she directed teachers to feed ice cream (an allergen) to infants without the knowledge or approval of families, causing one infant to suffer an allergic reaction--and then lied about it--we decided we couldn't entrust our child in her care and quickly withdrew. She never admitted culpability for the incident, despite multiple teachers separately recounting the same set of facts.

She will never admit when she's wrong, and unfortunately, Kindercare management who are well aware of Stephanie's many shortcomings refuse to hold her accountable because--as was explained to us--it's so difficult to find and keep people in these roles. Regrettably, some of the best teachers we've had in a daycare setting left Penn Quarter Kindercare because of the toxic, unprofessional, and vindictive behavior Stephanie directed toward them.

Obviously, you'll make your own decisions about whether to consider enrolling here, and godspeed if you do. I'm sharing this so you have full awareness of what to expect.  [/quote]

Vindictive parent or employer.  Which are you? Pretty sad.  I hate people like you.[/quote]

Neither, thankfully. Hate all you want. My post is intended for families who would rather avoid the nightmare experience we and other families have had. You can obviously choose to walk headfirst into that storm if you want, and I wish you and your child the very best of luck if you do. [/quote]

As a parent, I'm glad people like you take the time to warn us. [/quote]
