Response from the owner 22 Feb 2025

Thank you for sharing the concerns of your acquaintance through the Google review. We take all feedback seriously, irrespective of positive or negative. We are committed to maintaining a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment for both the children in our care and the educators who work with us. We take great pride in our team and consider them an integral part of our family. We’d like to clarify that the individual you mentioned is not employed as a trainee with us. She is a student completing a vocational placement as part of her course requirements and had chosen our childcare centre to fulfill her course requirements. As part of her placement with us, it is our responsibility to ensure that she fulfills the required number of hours, completes the assigned observations, and participates in various daily duties alongside our educators. This hands-on experience is designed to help students transition from the classroom to the workforce and gain industry knowledge, which we hope will help them secure future employment. We have helped so far 30+ students in completing their vocational placement and achieving their dreams. We understand that transitioning from a classroom setting to real-world experience can sometimes be overwhelming, and we acknowledge that frustration can arise. Unfortunately, in this case, the frustration seems to have led to false accusations regarding the care provided to children at our Centre and we highly object to this, as it's not just false accusations but misleading information. After investigating her claim about not getting documents signed, we found that her request to conduct observations on children was denied because it lacked prior written parental consent. We value each parent's opinion and respect their views on whether to allow their child to participate in the observation or not. We are addressing this matter along with other matters directly with the relevant RTO. It seems that when her request was refused, she expressed her frustration in a way that led to inaccurate allegations about meals and care practices at our Centre. We take these concerns seriously, and would be happy to discuss this further if you or the individual involved would like to reach out to us directly. Once again, we appreciate your feedback, and we remain dedicated to continuous improvement to ensure the best experience for both our educators and the families we serve.
