An “unclean” Wirral nursery where children were exposed to hazards such as large kitchen knives and extremely hot radiators has been slated in a report.
The Mulberry Tree Holiday Club, on Bertram Drive in Hoylake, Wirral, was given an inadequate rating by Ofsted after its March 4 inspection. Ofsted’s damning report said children’s health was compromised at the nursery with them eating off carpets “ingrained with dirt” among many other issues.
The Mulberry Tree Holiday Club, which provided full day care for 35 children aged between three and four at the time of the inspection, has had its registration suspended by Ofsted following the report but is applying to get re-registered. A spokesperson for the nursery said it is appealing the report and claimed there were a number of factual inaccuracies and false statements within it.
