To talk to nursery about this?

[Mummymumm]

My dd 3 has just turned around to me and said that when she was at nursery an older child from the after school club put his arm around her neck. And in her words she said he hurt my neck on the inside and I was crying. According to her s lady at the nursery helped her but I haven't been told anything. Aibu to ring them about this. It isn't something she would usually make up.

Definitely speak to them, and ask how they'll prevent it happening again.

Can you just talk to them at pick up? Kids give massive not very considerate hugs at this age. Sounds like the staff intervene when they do.
Ask. But don't get upset.

I'm not raging or anything just concerned that I wasn't made aware. It could be just an over enthusiastic hug but it's the my neck hurt on the inside that gets me.

I wouldn’t have expected them to tell me something like this unless my child was really hurt/was still hurting a while after the contact/it was deliberate violence by a child who had done it before.

My children attended a school nursery which in my experience gives much less detailed feedback at handover at the end of the session than a private nursery so I may just be used to it but I definitely wouldn’t be phoning asking how they would prevent it happen again. That’s overkill and a bit over dramatic in my opinion (unless your child was being bitten repeatedly or similar).
