Mother outraged by son's mistreatment at childcare center

abc.net.au

A mother, Jane, revealed her shock after learning her son was mistreated at a childcare center run by Jumpstart Education. She believed he was safe, but court documents showed he and other children faced severe abuse, including being restrained and force-fed. Jumpstart's centers closed in 2022 after failing to meet quality standards. The company and an educator were fined for their actions, but Jane criticized the penalties as insufficient. She expressed concern over the lack of oversight in the childcare sector and the new venture of the center's owners in disability support services. Jane's son, now seven and diagnosed with autism, continues to be affected by his experiences. She emphasized the need for stronger regulations and inspections in childcare to prevent future abuse.
