Sophia chose to take my 4 yr old daughter to the shop during a global pandemic (something we had managed to avoid completely) and therefore put her health at risk. She also endangered my child’s life by driving her to the shop without any form of car seat. We thankfully have a very honest and trustworthy daughter that explained exactly what happened.

I cannot believe she thought this was safe and told us she would “bear it in mind” to use a seat next time. Driving no matter how slowly or carefully does not account
for other road users, especially in a crash situation where an adequate car
seat is not in use. No seat no journey!

I am furious and hope no one else goes through the horror we did when we discovered we had allowed our child to be cared for by someone so brazen about the safety of children in her care. She may seem nice but don’t take your child’s safety for granted!

As discussed in private, I was adhering to the government guidelines of social distancing so had ensured that myself and Luna did not enter any aisle that had another person, neither did we stand close to anyone or touched anything unnecessary.Her hand was held the entire time and as soon as we left we had used sanitiser. I was honest about the entire situation and sincerely apologised for taking her out during this time and was highly apologetic and regretful for not using a car seat on this instance. Social distancing was maintained the entire time and the duration of the journey was merely 0.2 miles, nevertheless a car seat should have been used but that was error on my part for which I am deeply sorry.
