Sesame Lane North Lakes Joyner Circuit

We've been with this daycare for a few years now. They feed the children well, so well they don't want their dinner. They have staff retention issues, they have a change of the guard it seems fairly often with in-house management/admin. Now after renovating the place, they suddenly without discussion have enforced a 'shoe free nursery' which was an afterthought of the renovation. They expect parents to remove their shoes in a narrow hallway for a 30 second drop off etc. It's not convient, safe or probably even legal as it's a tiny hallway. So now I can't walk into the room, collect my sons things etc. Seasame Lane seems to have a superiority complex where they think they know better. My son and daughters have always come home sick after attending this daycare, it's been ongoing for a long time The notion they think enforcing parents to remove shoes will not fix a lack of care issue along with sick children is a joke. They do not listen, do not care about parents rights or views. Head office also shows no concern. There are some staff that are wonderful and overall it's a great concept plagued by a staff turn over issue who all want to implment new idea's that are not ncessarily for the benifit of the children parents or center itself. I have had my daughter be bitten on more then one occasion. So I have mixed feelings about this place, presently I am unhappy with their stupid idea of a shoe free anything. Working parents want to just come drop their children off and go, not be dictated to. I've seen kids there with snot covering half their face... now that to me is of more concern then their claim about dirty shoes which clearly they are too afraid to confont the one or two people who they have an issue with. Maybe it's religious the demand for shoe free who knows. There are good things, there are bad things. But our children getting sick attending this daycare, is for us a very annoying part of this. So just be aware, they think they know better. As per their response, they are happy to discuss and dismiss your views :D - side note they also take photos etc of your child and post it on their app which is great if your a working parent lets you stay upto date, see your child while your working etc. Again I have mixed feelings about this place. Good, bad, ok. We've moved from the silly nursery now so....
