Talk to the director

1St Garden Childcare Center

For parents already enrolled here. Below are the findings that aren't confirmed resolved yet, each with a respectful question you can bring to the director — as a partner, not a gotcha. Copy one, or the whole summary to share with other parents.

Is it being fixed?

Tick the findings you want to raise, then print a handout for the meeting or copy them to share with other parents. Bring them collaboratively — regulators can take months to log a correction, so ask for the sign-off rather than assuming.
