At the start I was really happy and was reassured but after the signing up process and then started his first day of care they explained that they have to pause care. Paused care and I had to follow them up which wasted a whole 1 week of my and my sons time to be told that they can't provide him with a spot due to waiting on further support for other children and the educators were overwhelmed. If you can't have anymore children in the room why waste my time signing him up, taking money out of my account, making him come to orientations and have his first full day? Very unprofessional in my opinion and also does not help when the child feels comfortable and has to start all over again. Don't say you have availability in the room if your educators pyschically can not look after the children. Read more
