My children, now 4 1/2 and 2, have been going to Todays Child (Media) Since each of them were about 5 months old. As a PA State Trooper and US Army officer, I observe the teachers and staff with a critical eye during drop off and pickup. They take great care of the children and would do no harm to them. I feel the circumstances leading to the license revokation was an isolated incident, and not indicative of the facility and staff. While a parent never wants to leave there children with another, I believe my children and all the children at Todays Child (Media) are well cared for, safe, and in an environment that is condusive to learning. My kids enjoy going there and are excited every morning to go to school. Further, I have brought suggestions and comments forward to the staff and they are well received and sometimes incorporated. i ask that you reconsider your decision as the effects of the license revokation effect more than the school and its staff. It effects every child and thier parents who attend the school. As it was our decision to send our children, pleasae leave that decision with us. Please feel free to contact me concerning my comments through Todays Child staff. Repectfully, Ben King

My two children attend Today's Child; one for over 5 years, the other for over 1. I have the fullest confidence and trust in the teachers, care-givers, and administrators at Today's Child to look after, teach and attend to my children.

While I also cannot speak to the circumstatnces surrounding the alleged incidient, I can tell you that my son has flourished under the care of Today's Child-Media. His teachers and the staff have been extremely understanding and caring. They listen to any questions/suggestions/wants that I have. I trust everyone there to take care of my child. He also comes home and tells me he had fun at school, he tells me everything he did and even when he is a troublemaker.

While I cannot speak to the circumstances surrounding the alleged incident at issue, I can certainly speak to my experiences with my daughter's caregivers/teachers since she enrolled at Today's Child Media in May 2014. I firmly believe the care, attention and education my daughter (3) has received meets and exceeds my expectations. On a daily basis, I am fully aware of what my daughter is learning at school and have full confidence in her well-being while she is in their care. Anytime my daughter has been involved in an incident at school, I was provided timely notice and appropriate care was provided to her whether it be applying ice or band aids. I have never been concerned for her physical or mental safety at any time. But just as importantly, she has established relationships with friends at school as well as many of the staff members. She can’t walk down the hall without being greeted by various teachers and staff who obviously exude genuine interest in my daughter and her well-being. My daughter comes home and tells me that she loves her teachers which melts my heart and makes me feel confident she is in great care. By revoking the license, you are effectively punishing these great teachers and caregivers who not only do their job, but do it well. Additionally, you are threatening to terminate these well founded, healthy and beneficial relationships that the children enrolled here have established with their friends and caregivers. For these reasons, I respectfully request that the decision to revoke Today’s Child – Media’s license be rescinded.

I have two children at today's child and have always been perfectly happy with the care they receive. I do not believe the incident in question could have happened at the facility. What happened to "innocent until proven guilty"??? If this facility is closed, it will be an extreme hardship for our family. There are no other daycare centers in the area in our budget that do not have long waitlists so I may not be able to work if you close our daycare without at least 6 months notice.

all 3 of children have been with the media location since they were 6 weeks old, now two are schoolagers here and the other in our wonderful preschool 1 class. As a parent I could not think of sending my children any where else after experiencing what I have and continue to experience here at Media. As a director, I have never met such dedicated, loving, and engaging teachers. They are truly what makes this center.

My daughter, who is now 4, has been attending the media site since she was born. My older daughter attends summer camp here every year. The staff is engaging, loving, professional and protective. I wouldn't send my girls anywhere else and it seems a bit extreme to be threatening their license for such an incident. please reconsider the decision to revoke their license.

My now-almost 5 year old has been at this institution since he was 10 weeks old. I am planning of sending my 7 months old to the same instittuion starting this year. I can attribute my son's education in great part to Today's Child educators. .

My 21 year old was a Today's Child kid and now my 3 year old is there. I couldn't be happier with the facility, faculty and my son's progress in learning.
