A car has crashed into The First Steps creche in Waterford city.

 

The accident occurred around 9:30 am this morning when a mum lost control of her car as she was driving into the pre-school car park.

 

Thankfully, none of the staff or children were harmed during the incident at the creche, which is in Ballybeg, Co. Waterford.

 

Caramel Staunton, who is a childcare manager, spoke to Independent.ie about the aftermath of the crash, “the bottom part of the wall is damaged and so is the radiator inside.”

 

The staff have decided to close the pre-school room until the repairs have been completed. It will take at least a week to repair the wall that the car crashed into.

 

The parents of the children involved were extremely grateful to hear that their children were safe and sound.

 

Caramel also expressed her relief, “we are very fortunate everyone is okay.”
