    Before the take over from only about children, maples was fantastic, would have highly recommended for maples but since take over there is always something going wrong. Poor communication with the parents, no news letter or information to parents in regards to their changes. Accounts problem as they charge surcharge as well even though it’s a direct debit from the bank account. And their makeup days and holiday discount policy does not exist but still the account gets debited from parents account for the public holidays that child has not attended the care centre. I would not recommend only about children to others and so as my other child won’t be enrolled in that centre.

    It’s about only about children Mernda - Poor communication from the head office, big organisation with money hungry. No clarification in regards to account as they don’t let you know but charge directly from the account with the extra surcharge even if it’s direct debit from the bank account. No makeup days if taken holiday discount even though we pay for public holidays that come within the days of care. Regards to kindergarten funding took a long time did not even let the parents know what was happening. No recommended to any other parents .
