AIBU with nursery?

DS (nearly 2) was being picked up by MiL from nursery Friday before Christmas. To cut long story short(ish) he was in foyer with other parents and children but no staff and quite upset, no staff appeared until about 2 minutes later when other parents/children had gone. MiL did not mention at the time as was shocked herself and didn't know what to say 'on the spot'.

Have emailed nursery since eho vasically replied that they'd separately interviewed all staff and that 2 staff were in the fiter (it's a 10ft by 10ft room roughly) and that this had also been corroborated by a parent but perhaps Mil was confused as they were in non uniform.

Mil remains adamant no staff there, has picked him up many times before and so is familiar with the small number of staff there.

I am wanting to inform nursery he will no longer be attending with immediate effect (he hasn't been in since) and basically bs to the 4 weeks notice (in nicer terms) as all care rendered previous is already paid. I just feel if something was to happen now I wouldn't forgive myself, partner says I'm overreacting...

If you break your contract with them then they can and may take you to the small claims court to recover the money for the 4 weeks notice that you have to give.

Thats is not really my main issue, they have broken contract in the first place anyway, no parent would be expected to put their child in a nursery where they are potentially at risk of harm, I have no doubt if they did bother to take it to small claims it would be fruitless.

I wouldnt take him back and tbh id be surprised if they did take you to small claims, they wont want this being made a bigger deal and more people becoming aware

If you have lost trust in them then you can’t send him there.

This is your second thread on this. What did people advise on your first thread?

It was advised to speak to them about my concern, I hadn't done this at the time (nor has he been in nursery since due to xmas/NY break) I honestly thought they would respond with an apology and a plan of action to ensure it didn't happen again, I would have been happy with this. I'm very shocked with their effective cover up!
