Posted by a parent on 2/20/2026The principal does not respect staff. She intimidates and threatens staff members. Very confrontational. You do not feel safe in her presence. She appears like she wants to fight you. Unprofessional. Disgusting behavior.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy oldest son attended Mary Bobb, the Winthrop location, when he was 2.5 years old and still wearing pampers. He was always greeted with kindness, taught to be respectful and and was even potty trained there. He enjoyed going to daycare everyday. We loved his teacher Ms. Yvonne. That son is now 6 years old, obviously in elementary school, so I'm unaware of any changes between then and now other than the Winthrop location closing but I will be looking very strongly into this daycare as my youngest in just turning two now.Parent Review7y ago - Mary Bobb Learning Academy
