Firebase queryStarting doesn't seem to work

This is the structure of my data:

ft-public-records
   2015-01-01 00:00:00 GMT
        addedByUser: "[email protected]"
        rating: 1
        time: "2015-01-01 00:00:00 GMT"
        timestamp: 1490437551.593684

Without queryStartAt, I can get the object without problems:

self.publicRef.child("2015-01-01 00:00:00 GMT").queryOrdered(byChild: "rating").observe(FIRDataEventType.value, with: { snapshot in
      print(snapshot)
})

Result:

Snap (2015-01-01 00:00:00 GMT) {
    addedByUser = "[email protected]";
    rating = 1;
    time = "2015-01-01 00:00:00 GMT";
    timestamp = "1490437551.593684";
}

But the moment I add the queryStarting at 1 for ratings, I get null.

self.publicRef.child("2015-01-01 00:00:00 GMT").queryOrdered(byChild: "rating").queryStarting(atValue: 1).observe(FIRDataEventType.value, with: { snapshot in
                print(snapshot)
})

Result:

Snap (2015-01-01 00:00:00 GMT) <null>

What am I missing please?

I ended up restructuring the json by adding another child houmie-2013-01-01 00:00:00 UTC to the 2013-01-01 00:00:00 UTC

{
  "ft-public-records" : {
    "2013-01-01 00:00:00 UTC" : {
      "houmie-2013-01-01 00:00:00 UTC" : {
        "rating" : 1,
        "time" : "2013-01-01 00:00:00 UTC",
        "timestamp" : 1.490550817827253E9,
        "username" : "houmie"
      }
    }
  },
}

This works for me now:

self.ref.child("ft-public-records").child("2013-01-01 00:00:00 GMT").queryOrdered(byChild: "rating").queryStarting(atValue: 1).observe(FIRDataEventType.value, with: { snapshot in
    print(snapshot)
})
