The management are really nice however I felt my daughter wasn’t looked after properly. It took me a while to reflect on this experience & put into words . The first problem was that was placed in a room she was too young for and therefore everyday we picked her up to be told she was * emotional + very clingy *. She had just turned 1. She was still crawling when she started and was in a room with children who looked at least 2. She struggled to settle & everyday she cried. There wasn’t many photos of her ( can count on hand ) & yet photos were uploaded regularly of other children and she was crying in the ones I did see. It was hard because I understand children can be clingy but some staff made us feel it was our fault/ her fault. One staff member particularly informed me that “ she really really struggles - I won’t lie”. All of this was never paired with suggestions - just bad feedback. In the morning drop offs, a few times we dropped her off and she would be crying really hard & walk to the door. There was only 1 or 2 person so she couldn’t properly be comforted . I understand it’s child care but this wasn’t a great experience. We decided to pull her out after 2 months or so & keep her at home . We are now trying care again and having a completely different experience . Shes in an age appropriate room & she’s being comforted when she cries at us leaving. Plenty of updates about her & most importantly I feel more at ease. It’s never gonna be perfect but just some feedback. Some educators were amazing and I would never want anyone in trouble as it’s not their fault either. Read more
