Persons Prohibited from Collecting Children
If a different person calls to collect a child and the parents have not informed the Nursery of this, then the parent’s permission must be obtained before handing over the child.
All staff should be aware that some children are not allowed to come into contact with members of their own family. In such circumstances, a register is kept of each child and their names of those families with whom that child is forbidden contact. If one of the family members should call at the Nursery, they must not be granted access and an authorised person must deal with the situation and ensure that no contact is permitted. The child’s primary carer must be informed of the incident immediately thereafter.
