Pros

Great facilities - clean & well maintained. As long as you get your work done and try your hardest, admin and parents will treat you well. If you don't show up or complain a lot, expect to have a harder time.

Cons

Curriculum to work off of was dated (when I was there) and I supplemented a lot on my own. I bought most of my own supplies or had to have parents bring in supplies.

Pros

* Rewarding Student Interaction: Great opportunity to gain hands-on experience in early childhood education. * Meaningful Contribution: Enjoyed supporting young children and contributing to classroom and gym activities.

Cons

* Harsh Supervisory Communication: Feedback frequently crossed professional boundaries into humiliation. * Unprofessional Vocabulary: Management used phrases like "chop-chop" to force rushed classroom cleaning. * Targeted and Singled Out: Received significantly more private correction and harsher treatment than peers. * Public Workplace Humiliation: A supervisor called me an "embarrassment" following a routine parent interaction. * Unsafe Emotional Environment: Ordered not to cry and told to resume work immediately after a difficult moment. * Unprofessional Behavior Around Children: A supervisor physically mimicked a student's aggressive behavior in front of children. * Prioritizing Appearances Over Staff: Management prioritized protecting supervisor dynamics and optics over retaining frontline educators. * Zero Professional Courtesy: Notified of termination while away on a scheduled family vacation in Florida.
