My daughter started in the toddler classroom at Goddard school Viera in August when the school opened. I love how clean the school is and the app they use to keep parents informed of the child’s day and the schedule. The playground is nice and the teachers were super sweet and loving towards my daughter. With that being said, I do have a huge issue with their biting policy. In a course of less than 5 weeks my child was bitten 4 times (2 times in 1 morning) . My child has never bitten a child and 3 of these bites were unprovoked and one she was reaching for another child’s snack. According to their policy they are not able to tell me if the same child bit her . After the second bite, I had a conversation with the front desk staff about what steps are being taken to help address the situation. I was given the generic “ it’s part of that ages behavior “ and the bitters parents are aware of the situation. There are “ behavior action plans in place”. No specific details given to me at this time. After the 3rd and 4th bite I learned more information about the action plan and that provoked or unprovoked biting didn’t have any different consequences. There is not a certain number of bites that would unenroll a child, they will just work on adjusting the biters behavior. I find this highly unacceptable. They keep it so hush hush that I have no idea how many times the bitter has bitten other kids. It could be 10 times and they are still in the classroom. Now ask yourself if you, as a parent, feel comfortable dropping your kid off with a child that is known to have bitten multiple kids for no reason. In their policy it says they will have a one on one person with the child to watch them and correct the behavior and this has not been done. I find the way that the administrators are handling this is unacceptable and negligent. I called corporate and was told that each school makes their own rules when it comes to biting. Goddard, you have much room for improvement to keep kids safe. Due to the unsafe environment I was forced to pull my child from school and find another daycare while the bitter or bitters stay in the school hurting other children. DO BETTER!
