What did the teacher say?
I always feel abit nervous having to discuss things with them that Im not happy with.
but it sounds like your gut is telling you this place isn't right. I say trust your instincts.
I would not be happy with that comment at all,
plus, I found when I was searching, that some childcares were alot rougher in the playground than others. One place I went for a trial was really rough and the director mentioned it was just the group of kids there on that day. But I think it makes a big difference how involved the teachers are in their playtime, like do they join in the play, or do they just stand there.
