The worst experience of customer service (or complete lack of) I have ever experienced of any company, childcare or otherwise. They need to really up their game when it comes to the transparency of their enrolment process. Please be aware that If they offer you a place in writing prior to accepting your application it certainly doesn't mean you have a spot at their centre.

Great Beginnings Applecross has been amazing in helping our daughter settle back into childcare after a break—she was so attached to me, but the staff made the transition so much easier for her and for us. What really stands out is how much they care about each child individually. It doesn’t feel like your child is just one of many; they truly take the time to connect with every kid. The staff are also so respectful and always take the time to explain how our daughter’s day went, which we really appreciate. A big thanks to Christine, Alyshia, and Allana for all your support and kindness—you’ve made such a difference!
