Childcare centre workers to undergo police screening before employment, says Nancy


KUALA LUMPUR: The Women, Family, and Community Development Ministry will work with the police to ensure that babysitters or caregivers at nurseries and childcare centres have no criminal records, says minister Datuk Seri Nancy Shukri.

She stressed that one of the key initiatives to ensure the safety of children at childcare centres or taska was to subject potential caregivers to police screening, so that only those with a clean slate were hired.
