I find these ratings very sad. To think that someone would sit at their computer and pretend to be someone they are not and give false ratings on a school that should be closed speaks words of what our world is coming to. I spent some time at that school and I can tell you from firsthand experience that this is not a place to send a child, an animal or anything you truly love. Read these ratings carefully. In April alone, on April 23 to be exact, the same person gave various rating beginning at 2 and ending at 4 pm approximately. Someone more likely the director wants us to believe that several parents gave the school such high ratings? On one day? This is far from the truth. Barney day care is a place where children are mistreated and the teachers come and go out of fear. The director is a bully and a racist. The school is dirty and cluttered. Check out all of the violations she has on the Department of Health website and talk to your children carefully. Those who are speaking highly of the school should truly be ashamed of themselves. During one particular observation in April with the director I witnessed the terror in the teacher's eyes. I will never forgive myself for not pulling them to the side and asking them what was wrong. Again, choose the school you place your child/ren in carefully. You owe it to them to be smart, wise parents who take the time to speak to former teachers as to the real reason they are no longer employed with the school. If you know of any heath related violations and or allegations of neglect towards the students please do not sit on this information call the Department of health or call district 31. Thank you.

Let me start by saying words cannot express the gratitude I have for all
that you have taught my son Eliseo VanDross at Barney Daycare Inc. It's
amazing how much Eliseo has learned in 9 months. I certainly appreciate
your Professionalism, Patience and Promptness. I can definitely say that
through Eliseo and my experience at Barney Daycare Inc. I will recommend
other parents to Barney Daycare Inc. Thank you again for all you have done
for Eliseo.

My son has been attending barneys daycare since about 8/2011, i say they were pretty good in the begining, until i started to see changes in staff almost every other week. The owner mrs. Marget will have anyone and anyone in their, and slowly but shortly i started to get curious, about what the hell is going on. My sons has gotten sick every other month, all the owner cares about is if HRA will send her the check, so here i am researching, and i read noras coment below, and decides to cheak out their violation history and well... Check it out for yourself

The owners barely speak english!! she plays like she loves the children but on numerous account ive seen her manhandle the children. I removed my child from this day care recently and I am so glad i did. the director is very ignorant and likes to scream and yell at people. My child told me on numerous occassions she would come to the area where children sit and tell some kids how annoying they were. What does this do for a childs self esteem if you love your child do the research...research her on doh and see how many violations Barney day care has it will gross you out
