    Overall, while I appreciate the learning experience and exposure I gained at Sunkids, the lack of fair treatment, proper support, and consistent management made it a very challenging and unsustainable place to work.
    The good thingsI was able to learn a lot while working at Sunkids. The role gave me valuable hands-on experience in early childhood education and helped me develop practical skills in caring for and teaching young children.
    The challengesThe workplace was very stressful, with little support from management. The manager was often away during work hours for personal matters, leaving staff without guidance. Paid entitlements were inconsistent, there were no 10-minute paid breaks, and pay did not always match qualifications unless staff followed up repeatedly. Ratios were always very tight, sometimes leaving only one educator in a room, and staff were sent home even when numbers barely met requirements. International students, in particular, were taken advantage of, often given the late shifts while local staff rarely covered them.
