DD (22m) attends nursery 3 days / wk. Injuries inflicted by other children used to be few and far between. However, recently she has been coming home with nasty bitemarks nearly every week. Only 3/4 of these seem to get picked up by nursery staff. On speaking to them, they ensure me that this is just a phase kids go through and that they do everything to prevent it. However, I'm not convinced. Often when I go in they have less than the required ratio of staff:kids. I don't feel that they are keeping a close enough eye on the serial biter(s) to prevent this.
Does anyone else have experience of this? Is it normal for kids this age at nursery to suffer so many injuries at the hands of their playmates?
Any ideas? Cheers.
