I stayed here back in 1994. It was a great place back then. I had my own room on the top floor. It was calm and quiet. Never any drama between the residents. We all got along. The staff was very respectful and always willing to help. Seeing all of the bad reviews here in 2020 is very shocking to me. We had free reign of the kitchen and bought our own food. We cooked when we got hungry. There was a curfew and there were rules. Just like every other establishment like this. Sad to hear its come to this😞
Just weigh your options. Ask questions about everything before you decide to move in. You do get your own room tho. Your opinions arent valued or allowed at Bayard House. If you move here just keep your head down dont talk to anyone and do what you have to do to get out. If your someone who doesnt take criticism or some rudeness to well this place it not for you. Your not there to be comfortable they say, but are you there to feel belittled, criticized or feel like you dont have support. Not saying its all bad theres good days, theres just bad too.
I hope there is someone reviewing these comments and being responsible in following up with folks. It is sad when the place you go for help and support is the cause of your pain and dilemma. Be careful to voice your concerns by putting it in writing and sending it to the proper people that can assist you in making a difference.
Their supervisor walked in on me when i had no clothes on even after I told her how uncomfortable it made me feel her response was that shed make a staff stand in my room all day while I was nude she didnt care
They need to better and care more
Horrible place my girlfriend was here while she was pregnant and they took her food stamps and wick. They made her walk to school pregnant while she was cramping horribly and wouldn’t let her do anything without documentation. She left to go to the hospital for medical needs and they called the police on her filing a missing persons report. Very disrespectful when she decided to leave they would not help her with anything down 2 flights of stairs
Dont waste ya time! I was high risk pregnancy & in out hospital. They kick me out at 23weeks because of medical needs.
If I could give this place negative 5 stars I would! This place is nothing but issues and miserable people. My stay there only lasted 3 1/2 months . They take your food stamps and wic. The manager ms.kim was the most disgusting human being I have ever came in to contact with, she’s disrespectful and did not treat me or anyone else in a respectful way. The staff were just as disrespectful, acting as though you were under them. I was told to leave because I was in college all day and couldn’t always provide the documentation saying where I was throughout the day. When I told her that my mother was out of town and wouldn’t be back until the next day to help me move my things out she told me my things could stay until the morning but I was put out at 11 pm at night with nowhere to go PREGNANT! I was lucky after wandering around for a hour that a friend could pick me up. I will still be following legal precautions against the bayard house for mental and emotional abuse.
They take your food stamps and I believe WIC checks and kick me out cause I beat up this girl for talking about my daughter a sad place
I was a resident there until the day I was sitting in the living room over 6 monthes pregnant in pain waiting for my ride to the hospital. when the case manager said I must do dishes before I left. As she was sayin that my mom arrived and I walked out. She proceeded to scream my name over and over again out the front door. that night I came to pick my things up because I moved out. They wouldnt let me have any help from my mom carrying my belongings down 2 flights of stairs and would not give me back my ebt or wic items. Also half of my prenatals were missing. I would not recomend coming here unless you have absolutly nowhere to go. They take your ebt and wic but yet there is never food in the house, most of the staff are rude and inconsiderate.
Bayard House they are very mean and unhelpful they talk about you they take your EBT card and dont buy food they act like its a big thing when you want to go to the hospital they let the girls fight they call dfs when you play with you baby in your bed
AWESOME
