DS is full of a cold with quite a bad cough so I decided to keep him home from nursery today. I didn't have to set an alarm so we got up late, had a leisurely breakfast, and I was in the middle of giving him a bath when I remembered I hadn't called nursery to let them know he wasn't coming in.
However, I've just now realised they haven't called me either when he's not turned up. I think I thought it was like school where they'd call to find out if everything is okay. Should nurseries do this or have I got it wrong?

There's no requirement to, but DS's did, more as a general welfare check than anything else. About that time there was a case in the news about a young boy who had starved to death after his mother had died suddenly and as school hadn't checked his dad (who was away on business) was unaware until it was too late.
