Little Peoples Child Care Center - Tuscaloosa, Alabama

I am very disappointed in this child care center. My mother used to work there until recently and always did a great job. Ask any parent about her and they would say this, not just personal bias. I have assessed this daycare over the last few years she has worked there and have come to these conclusions: The management is awful and the daycare is very mismanaged. They treat their employees like garbage and care more about the money they make than the kids’ and teachers’ overall well-being. For example, last summer the A/C unit broke down and was not fixed for several days. Instead of closing the daycare and fixing the issue, they left the daycare open while still refusing to fix it. The employees and children had to suffer in unbearable conditions until the building owner found out about this issue and had the issue fixed after being very upset his child was overheated. The management would also refuse to let my mother go to much needed doctors appointments simply because they were “short-staffed” and would let her go when someone else arrived to take over for her. Many times this never happened. Not only this but would refuse to let her leave due to emergency circumstances. She needed immediate medical attention once and called me because she needed me to bring her to the emergency room. They refused to let her leave because again they were “short-staffed” and waiting for someone to come replace her. It took me calling her boss to tell her the situation before they agreed to let her leave. She ended up having emergency surgery as the doctor told us it was a good thing we came to the hospital when we did… There’s no telling how long we would have had to wait to leave if I didn’t say anything. Come to find out, the management was quite upset that I made that phone call. My mother ended up having to quit this job because the management refused to let her go to the doctor because again, they were “short-staffed” in which the doctor told them it was not a normal appointment but a very urgent one due to internal bleeding. This information apparently went in one ear and out the other, as they still refused to let her leave. At this point, it was either her job, or her health simply because the management cared more about the money they make, than their own employees or children they take care of. This daycare should not be allowed to stay in business and should be reported to the state for countless violations known and unknown. Take this information how you may, but in my opinion, I would HIGHLY recommend any parents seeking a daycare that is welcoming and treats your kids and their caretakers with respect and care, to simply seek a different daycare company. My only hope is that justice for the children attending this daycare and the employees that work here, get the justice they deserve.

Very disappointed !!! heard many good things but our experience was not good at all. Understand that you have to have a “ certain type of child “ to be enrolled in this daycare. Discriminating towards children is the worst & pray it never happens to anyone else’s kid! S/o to Ms Shannon she was amazing ❤️ always greeted my bby with a smile, very caring!

Our son attended here and the teachers were absolutely wonderful. You can tell that they absolutely love children. They were genuinely concerned if they thought something was wrong, and they were always excited to see my son after a weekend. We had to relocate due to work, but we wish we could find a daycare as awesome as this one.

This is an amazing daycare. All teachers and administrators are well versed caring for your child. My son was really timid but since attending little peoples he has become more talkative and really understands his school work. Definitely a school I would recommend to anyone. They are pretty affordable too

Were do I begin with this place the employees they have working here are plain out wrong for what they do one can't pick up children and there's one that will not change dirty diapers there claim there clean but there not that clean there don't deep clean like they should they don't care about kids allergies or anything they just want a paycheck they have no love for anything besisde the money there rude and disrespectful and lie when something happens they lie and says it didn't happen the place is a joke and to top it off the director Is a two faced witch I would trust my dog to watch my then them
And to top it all off the parking lot is key for people get pulled over by cops to pull in there
And when I was able to glance at the playground it look unsafe for any child to play on this place need to be shut down forever
