Reviews of Southbourne Children's Centre
"It should be 0 star. The worst children contact centre. NOT RECOMMENDED. Dirty, dated open space with couple of mismatched sofas charged over £60 per hour. Staffs are rude & unprofessional especially the strange woman called Teresa. I was told that I couldn’t use the toilet facilities from 15 minutes before my 1 hour visit started. Staffs kept locking the doors. I believe prisoners have better visiting time with their children than YMCA children contact centre in Bournemouth. Teresa is a confused woman. She forget she is employed to work at contact centre. Teresa thinks she is the police & the court all rolled into one. Teresa visited my children home address for no obvious reason at all. Not a normal practice by any other context centres. There is no connection whatsoever between where my children live & using the YMCA contact centre for 1 hour every fortnight. Whilst Teresa was at my children’s home address she asked for as much information as possible in relation to our court case which was breach of court order and she took a copy of SECTION 7 reports. That was the second time clear breach of court order committed by Teresa. When I pointed that breach to her she didn’t even apologise. Furthermore, Teresa was very nosy she wanted as much information about my private life as she could get. Finally Teresa wanted to know if myself & my ex-partner are having any contact away from YMCA contact centre. I did pointed out to her that has nothing to do with her & that is not part of her job. Teresa is confused old woman rather than concentrating on her job at the YMCA contact she is breaching court order. In her little world Teresa thinks she knows the law but in reality she has no idea about the legal system."
"If you are ever unfortunate enough as a father to find yourself at this centre. Do not go. If you do record everything secretely because the staff, especially Teresa Busby will fabricate concerns at the mother's request to stop your contact. Do not be fooled by her fake demeanor. The lady is a snake. The problem is all her colleagues will support her. It will be all their word against yours and good luck with that in court."
"Fantastic for the kids and really well thought out. Fantastic experience for the kids and the staff were excellent."
"Awful experience, the staff are some of the most bias and unprofessional women. I've ever had to deal, they make it clear they don't have the children's best interest at heart. Everything they do benefits the women and if you happen to be late because the place is in the middle of nowhere. You miss out on quality time with your children and they try and dictate on how to parent. Awful place,needs shutting down."
"I have a three year old son and a five months old baby girl and I love this children's centre as it offers a good variety of activities for babies and toddlers. Most activities are free and some are just £1 which is definitely not a lot if you compare it to other activities in the area. I would recommend everyone with small children and babies to make use of these activities. Staff is also very friendly and welcoming. Keep up the good work Southbourne children's centre :)"
