DO NOT send your child to guardian!! Completely incompetent staff, undertrained. I got no updates about my child’s day whilst they were at this facility… didn’t even know if they ate or slept until I asked. They merge the nursery and toddler room which is no good for a child’s development. Myself and another 7 all moved our children from the facility. The staff are extremely rude especially the new manager Celine. No time of day for the parents or children and are often gossiping. Will not recommend this facility to anyone! Absolute nightmare and should be audited and closed down. Half of the staff have also moved to the new amazing facility down the road… says it all
