Babies were able to eat lotion at a Liverpool nursery that has been slammed as inadequate by inspectors.
Ofsted have ordered Barton’s Day Nursery on Lower Lane, Fazakerley, to improve immediately following its first inspection in June. Inspector Kayte Farrell said the day care centre, which provides care for children up to the age of four, did not “properly risk assess or consider the age of children when choosing the materials used during messy play activities.”
The report said “It was because of this, babies under one year old are given baby lotion to explore, which is subsequently eaten. This compromises the health and safety of young children."
