Children at nurseries denied a kiss and a cuddle all day by staff worried about accusations of being paedophiles

Thousands of toddlers spend a whole day without a kiss or a cuddle at nursery to protect staff from paedophilia accusations, following the conviction of paedophile nursery worker Vanessa George.

• Experts say young children who are not with their parents are likely to produce a stress hormone known as cortisol
• Staff warned not to cuddle children, because to do so could harm their independence.
• One nursery manager says: ‘I don’t even kiss my own daughter while in nursery’
