I have toured this provider's facility, but have not used its services

After being told by one of the people in The learning center that they would have an opening for a two-year-old I had taken the drive over an hour and a half from my current town to the town that I am moving into and go in for a tour to find out they don't even have an opening. Nobody communicated to me that there was no opening nobody has been in contact with me in over 3 weeks since I asked for the tour to tell me that there wasn't an opening. Lack of communication between the front office employees and the centers manager and now I am in a rush to find a new daycare as I was looking forward to making this my son's new home for daycare.
