Hollie Alfordabout 1 year ago

4/5 years ago I invested a lot of time choosing the right child care for my child. And we were so happy here and so pleased with our decision - couldn’t fault the place! Four years down the track and wow how things have changed - 2x centre manager changes , massive staff turn over and not to mention covid. Still some great staff around but I’m now on wait lists elsewhere for my children. I hope they are able to rebuild to the quality of care they used to provide but right now I would recommend looking around before you decide.

Response from the owner12 months ago

Hi Hollie. Thank you for the review and for choosing our service in the first place. We apologise for the disruption caused by turnover in the team over the last years. We are confident that the issues leading to team turnover in the past has been resolved. We have been working hard with recruiting talented new team members to ensure the educators feel supported at their workplace and are able to provide the best care and early learning environment possible. If you wish to discuss this further, please reach out to our family support team at familycare@firstgrammar.com.au Kind regards, The First Grammar Team
