In a book entitled “The Price of the Cradle” which will be released on Friday, September 8, two journalists report a lack of means and personnel in private crèches. A survey that describes a system based on the race for performance, sometimes to the detriment of the primary needs of children.

A book to be published on Friday September 8, entitled The price of the cradle (ed. Seuil), denounces shortcomings in private crèches, which have become “factories“to babies. Lack of staff, search for profitability: the investigation carried out by two journalists makes shocking revelations and denounces commercial logic to the detriment of the well-being of children. “We have a lot of testimonies on diapers not changed enough”explains Daphné Gastaldi, one of the authors of this book.

A lack of staff

A system described as dehumanized and recounted from hundreds of interviews with professional actors and testimonies from parents. “A child locked in a room here. There, another forgotten in the dormitory for four hours”, we read in particular in this survey. The book also points to a significant lack of personnel. Some professionals say, for example, having to take care of 12 children at a time, instead of the authorized limit of six. The private groups involved defend themselves and invoke individual errors.
