A nursery provider has shut down its five nurseries in the Bristol area while they were being investigated by Ofsted over safeguarding concerns. Last month, BristolLive reported that the Leaping Lambs nurseries in Keynsham and the Willsbridge area of South Gloucestershire both had their registrations suspended by Ofsted.
According to the Ofsted website, all five nurseries in the Bristol area by Leaping Lambs Nursery Ltd have now closed - Caterpillars Day Nursery in Bath, Broadland Bears and Leaping Lambs in Keynsham, Leaping Lambs Forest School in Willsbridge and Leaping Lambs nursery on Bath Road, Swineford.
In a statement, Leaping Lambs Nursery Ltd said: "I can confirm that this provider has resigned their registration with Ofsted."
