You're asking the wrong forum. No one here's got a loo brush.

I think you are worrying about nothing - a risk assessment for a loobrush? I'm a registered childminder but wouldn't go that far.

First and foremost mindees are not allowed in the bathroom on their own anyway and there's no way they could get in there without me knowing.

1.You can remove the loo brush in the morning before they arrive.
2.You can state that you supervise them in the toilet
3.You can say they are discouraged from sucking on the loo brush Grin

Your loo brush ... what do you do to stop the children fiddling with it?

(Like PaisleyLeaf said - people who use MN are not allowed loo brushes Grin)
