Creche challenges reports of lawsuits

A director of one of the three creches featured in an RTÉ Prime Time exposé has challenged reports that parents are planning to sue.

James Hargrave, director of the Little Harvard childcare chain, said he had no knowledge of any claims being prepared by law firm Lavelle Coleman against the company arising out of the breaches filmed at its creche in Rathnew, Co Wicklow.

“Little Harvard has received no correspondence from Messrs Lavelle Coleman outlining a complaint or complaints by parents and do not expect to receive such complaints,” he said.
