Agree with Badhair. I sent ds to nursery at 7 1/2 months - they didn't have any toys that could have hurt a baby. He's been bumped three times in all, in 6 months of nursery, but only since he and all the other babies started crawling and cruising. If he'd been bruised before then I would have been very concerned; how on earth can a closely supervised, immobile baby get hurt, unless an adult is either negligent or positively harmful?
At ds's nursery babies are in the baby room and don't move up to the toddler room until they are ready ? ds will be going up in September, when he's 14 months.
The first time he collected a bruise was at the end of the day, when they move all the children who are still there in the same room to avoid having rooms with only one or two children in. They were trying to take a toy from a toddler (because they realised bad idea with babies in the room too) and ds got hit when the toddler pulled it back sharply.
The second and third time were this week ? once he fell over (practising his new cruising techniques) onto a toy and once he got whacked by another child's toy. Not good, but inevitable part of childhood exploration, I guess. (He's also bitten another child but at his age it clearly wasn't malicious, just curiosity I assume). Every time I had a verbal and written explanation of the incident and what action had been taken (ie cold compress for the bruise). And I had to sign the accident book.
But if he had ever been cut, I would be down there sharpish. And if this had ever happened before he was even sitting, I'd be on the phone to Ofsted, frankly. There shouldn't be anything in the room that could, in any way, break a baby's skin.
