BestStart Birkdale

We have been here since the day it opened and my daughter is now nearly 5. All the teachers have been so wonderful with our daughter and we look forward to sending our little boy next year as well :

Not smooth to deal with, poor service ..often my child comes home completely wet leaves kids play with hose tap ,not wipping the kids after going to the WC and many more ...

Really enjoying our experience at BestStart Birkdale. The teachers listen and actively engage with us, send up great updates, and take the time to help work through any issues namely our baby's sleep at daycare. Highly recommend.

I am blown away with the quality at BestStart Birkdale. The teacher's are experienced , welcoming , nurturing and friendly.nMy child is excited to attend the Centre everyday and and is always welcomed by our friendly Centre manager Chelsea and the teaching staff.nYou feel warm and welcomed from when you first walk in to the Centre.nThe building itself is state of the art and modern as it is a brand new Centre. The resources are all new and age appropriate for each classroom. The food is nutritious and my child loves the food :nnThe staff are always smiling and are always happy to help with any question's I have.

AWFUL MANAGEMENT & NOT FLEXIBLEnnAt first I was impressed with their facilities and the teachers. However, my nightmare started to begin after sending my daughter there about 2 weeks.nnFirst, I booked lunch for our daughter as she is a fussy eater but she didn't eat their lunch. Therefore I decided to prepare lunch for her and asked the centre if I can remove lunch that booked with the centre but they said NO! And we were charged for lunch meals on the day our daughter was there full day.nnSecond, after we stopped sending our little girl to BestStart Birkdale, they supposed to cancel our debit card but they kept charging us until we noticed when checking bank details. We requested for an explanation as well as refund of incorrectly charging for 3 weeks and 4-week meals fees. They confirmed that the money will be with us on 16th March but until now we HAVE NOT received the payment yet.nnLast but not least, they require for any changes, parents have to let them know 2 weeks in advance. Most teachers will arrive to the center at 9am. Before 9am there were 2 teachers 1 teacher and centre manager will look after more than 10 babies and toddlers from what I witnessed. They distract the little ones by letting them play with a plastic container that filled with water or ice cubes. Most of them were drinking dirty water and eating ice that covered with sand without an adult supervision! Some had heavily running nose but nobody was there to wipe for him.nnI'm glad our daughter is not with their center anymore!
