Eighteen-year-old, unskilled, who was hired illegally, was the responsibility of the two children, aged three and four, who left a kindergarten in Limassol without being noticed last week.
The President of the Association of Private Preschool Education of Cyprus, Lavra Irakleous in her intervention in the ANT1 show "Mera Mesimeri", described such incidents as inadmissible and unacceptable as well as stressed the need to take more stringent measures. have the necessary permits or comply with the necessary measures.
The 18-year-old, according to Ms. Irakleous, neither had the qualifications, nor had she received the necessary education to be responsible for childcare for this and her illegal employment is a fact that worries her very much, as she herself stated .
"The priority of everyone, wherever the children are, whether they are in private or in public kindergartens, must be the safety of the children," he noted characteristically.
He further added that children are unpredictable and no one can know what they may be thinking of doing in the next minute and that it is necessary to take precautionary measures before such incidents occur.
The worst part of the whole affair, according to Ms. Irakleous, is that the kindergarten staff had not even noticed the absence of the children until one of the mothers went to pick them up from there.
"These are very serious mistakes. "The Social Welfare Office must take strict measures for the kindergartens that may be operating and do not follow the rules that should be", he said with a strong style.
However, Ms. Irakleous stressed that it is fortunate that both children are in good health and the worst has been avoided. It is noted that the children were found wandering alone one and a half kilometers away from the kindergarten, by an unknown lady, who alerted the Police.
It is also worth mentioning that the 18-year-old who was responsible for the care of the two children is also involved in an incident that took place last Friday, when she bit the finger of the husband of the owner of the said kindergarten, as a result of which he injured him and sent him in a private clinic.
