General Impressions
The reviews of St Aubin Penarth are mixed, with one reviewer having a very positive experience, while another is extremely dissatisfied with the nursery's practices.
Positive Reviews
Excellent Care and Staff
The staff at St Aubin Penarth are praised by two reviewers for their exceptional care and dedication. Kirsten Bell notes that everyone at the nursery has been "amazing", with Donna being particularly brilliant in explaining everything to new parents and Asma being incredible with her son. Robyn Fulton also comments on the wonderful staff, who know her daughter well and keep her well-informed about her child's day.
Settling In and Supports
Both Kirsten Bell and Robyn Fulton mention the nursery's ability to make the settling-in process smooth and stress-free. Kirsten praises the nursery for making her return to work as a first-time mum less daunting, while Robyn says her daughter is excited to attend and reluctant to leave.
Negative Reviews
Data Collection Concerns
However, one reviewer has serious concerns about the nursery's data collection practices. Customer Service gives the nursery a 1-star rating, stating that they take pictures of children via the Xplor app and store data on Amazon servers, including children's data being stored in Australia for an indefinite period. This reviewer feels that the management is uncaring as long as parents sign the direct debit form.
