   AS A PARENT OF AN ENROLLED CHILD AT BLOSSOM STATION CHILD CARE I MUST EXPRESS MY REGRET THAT ANONYMOUS ADULTS, WHO MAY OR MAY NOT BE PARENTS OR WHO MAY BE EX-EMPLOYEES DISMISSED FOR CAUSE HAVE DECIDED TO USE THE INTERNET AS A VEHICLE FOR EXPRESSING AN INFANTILE TEMPER TANTRUM. THIS IMMATURE BEHAVIOR CREATES CONFUSION WITH THE PUBLIC WHO IS SEEKING QUALITY AND SAFE CARE FOR THEIR CHILDREN. THESE NEGATIVE REVIEWS WERE OBVIOUSLY WRITTEN BY INDIVIDUALS WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO VENT THEIR FRUSTRATIONS PROPERLY AND DIRECTLY AT THEIR “TARGETS”.
   
   ALL OF BLOSSOM STATION’S RESOURCES ARE FOCUSED ON EACH CHILD. THE CURRICULUM IS SUPPORTED BY EXCITING ENRICHMENT DELIVERED BY PROFESSIONALS WHO ARE WELL EDUCATED AND CERTIFIED IN THE FIELD OF EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION. BLOSSOM STATION’S STAFF MEMBERS ARE FAMILY CONSCIOUS. THE MAJORITY OF THE STAFF SPEAK FROM EXPERIENCE BOTH IN THE FIELD AS WELL AS AT HOME. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT ANYONE WOULD SETTLE FOR LESS. BLOSSOM STATION’S CHILDREN ARE EXCEPTIONALLY WELL TAKEN CARE OF IN THIS METICULOUSLY CLEAN, SAFE, NUTURING AND CREATIVE ENVIRONMENT. THE CENTER IS ACCREDITED BY THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE EDUCATION OF YOUNG CHILDREN (NAEYC).
   
   AT BLOSSOM STATION AN OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF THE PARENTS I HAVE ENCOUNTERED AS WELL AS MANY OF THE CENTER’S GRADUATES’ PARENTS SPEAK GLOWINGLY OF THE SCHOOL. A CONSIDERABLE NUMBER OF THE CHILDREN ARE ENROLLED FROM REFERRALS AND PARENTS WHO HAVE TWO, THREE AND FOUR CHILDREN THERE
   
   DON’T HAVE YOUR CHILD MISS THIS EDUCATIONAL AND CARING OPPORTUNITY AT BLOSSOM STATION CHILD CARE IN ACTON; MINE DIDN’T!!

   SHUT THIS CENTER DOWN!: This center should be SHUT DOWN! The management stinks. They cannot communicate with the parents or the teachers. The teacher turnover ratio is VERY HIGH. Putting my child there was the worst mistake of my life. It's pretty sad when the management does not know the age of one of their students and puts that child in a room with kids that are two years older and then wonder why the child cannot do the curriculum! THIS PLACE IS AWFUL! It's not a good sign when the management tells parents that they cannot handle a child because they are not qualified! Practically every day that I went in there, the rooms were a disaster. The bathrooms were never cleaned and the toilets were ALWAYS clogged. Awful, awful, awful center!

   I agree. even the adminstratives and owners swear in front of the kids and yell at them, but if the staff did this we'd be fired on the spot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hey parents it may look nice but like your parents once said looks are deceiving. It may be nice but why cant they KEEP STAFF. SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE QUIT IN 8 MONTHS ITS RIDICULOUS. Many teachers have quit and moved on. Maybe if they didn't spy and gossip about their employees they could keep great teachers. and treat them better.....................

   Glad to be out: I would just agree with the person who wrote that the administration is unresponsive. My child was there and came home with ticks twice, to which the owner responded, "well, ticks fly, we can't do anything about that". But the worst part is that the teachers leave the staff and parents are rarely notified. If you manage to get a good teacher (and it's possible) be aware that the turn over is REALLY high and the admin. might just mislead you on that rate.
   
   The monthly costs are pretty high (around $1500/mo for an infant) and you should get better than this from the administration.
