I would like to know where they are now. I spent close to twenty years of my life affiliated with this school and there is nothing or no one left around to show for it. This was one of the best private schools around years ago. I think something so great should have had a better way of closing it's doors. I continuously try to reach someone by phone and the number is disconnected. It breaks my heart. I began helping out here part time back in 1985 and became a full time teacher in 1986. I LOVED MY JOB!! Good-bye Bailey's Cradle & Class....I wish I could have said it to you face to face. Those of you who I had the opportunity to meet and teach I pray you have a good life. To the parents who trusted me with your child...THANK YOU. If anyone reads this and you were apart of the Bailey's Family from 1985 to 2004 this is Mrs. Lisa (mere609@yahoo.com)

I was apart of Bailey's Cradle and Class from 1988-1992. I had 3 children in the school, Zavier Jr., Miriam, and Iman. It was great and I truly appreciate the staff and the Bailey's. Hey Ms. Lisa it's Rochelle McFerguson. We should have a reunion. Zavier is 25, Miriam 21 and Iman is 20
