Emergency evacuation of nurseries?

[thelittlestkiwi]

I'm sitting watching the news about the news about the latest earthquake in Indonesia. So far it doesn't sound like there have been any casualties- fingers crossed.

But it does make me worry about DD's nursery. It's in rather a vulnerable position and it could need evacuating if there were an earthquake here. Does anyone know if nurseries should have emergency plans? Will I sound bonkers if I ask?

Yes, we are in a earthquake and tsunami zone! We've had a couple of warnings in the time I've lived here. Our house is up a big hill but the nursery isn't.

Please do ask, our nursery has one and they practise with the children regularly.

For the babies they have a special evacuation thing kind of like a travel cot with 6 compartments on wheels, they pop babies in and wheel out.

Btw - we're in UK and they still practise evac plan regularly
