  Unfortunately, I had a disappointing experience during my recent visit to this daycare. This week on Wednesday I stopped by with my 4-month-old baby to inquire about adding her to the waiting list. Upon arrival, there was no one at the reception, so I waited for someone to assist me. Eventually, a staff member entered and, without any greeting or introduction, asked what I needed. When I explained that I was looking to place my daughter on the waiting list, she replied that her break was ending in a minute and the director was not available. I asked again how to proceed with the registration, and she told me to visit a website. However, before to drive I had checked the Google Maps and I couldn’t find any relevant website for this daycare—this is why I had come in person. I showed her my phone to demonstrate that no website was available, and she eventually suggested sending an email, but did not offer the email address. I asked whether the phone number listed on Google Maps was accurate, and she had to call it herself to confirm if it worked. This left me with the impression that the staff were unprepared and not fully informed about how parents can get in touch or register their children. As someone who works in the hospitality industry, I was quite shocked by the lack of professionalism and warmth in the interaction. I do understand that all daycares are currently full and have long waiting lists, but that should not affect the level of respect or care shown to prospective parents and children. At this time, I no longer wish to pursue a spot at this daycare, but I sincerely hope that the staff, particularly the person I interacted with, will consider improving their approach to communication and hospitality. We are all equal, and a welcoming environment is especially important in places that care for our children.
