Parents say concerns were not acted on before London nursery worker’s arrest for abusing children

Lawyer for parents say allegations included children coming home injured and claims about how Vincent Chan treated toddlers

More claims have emerged that parents' concerns about the nursery worker Vincent Chan were not acted on before he was unmasked as a paedophile, as the government vowed to improve child safety after the scandal.

Chan worked at a north London branch of the Bright Horizons nursery chain from 2017 until his arrest in June 2024. He pleaded guilty on Wednesday to 26 offences including sexual assaults against girls aged two to four who were in his care, some carried out as children slept and some of which were filmed.
