DS goes to a relatively small family run nursery - 36 children - for a good few months, 3 days a week. He generally seems happy there and it was highly recommended by a friend.
The last 8 weeks or so however there has been an accident or incident every week that the nursery has completed a form for. He has cut his head, been scratched quite badly on the face on two occasions, been bitten by another child, suffered a burst lip, bruising to the side of his eye and today came home with a huge bruise on his forehead. He is now one and just stared walking so maybe all this is an age thing but I can't help wondering if the staff are keeping a proper eye on him. The room is not large - with 12 children 3 months to 15 months so he is one of the elder children but not the eldest - and they have a small garden where a couple of the accidents have happened. I have talked to the nursery each time but they say it's because of his age and these things happen.
My husband would prefer him not to be at nursery at all (my MIL wanted to give up work to have him and I didn't want that) and thinks we should move him. As nursery was my idea I have insisted that it's normal at his age but after so many incidents should I be concerned?
