Parents issue plenary summonses against Hyde And Seek Childcare Ltd, Hyde and Seek Glasnevin Ltd

Actions on behalf of 15 babies and toddlers have been launched in the High Court against a chain of creches at the centre of an RTÉ Investigates exposé broadcast last year, latest court records show.

Husband and wife Anne and Peter Davy, and daughter Siobhán Davy, of Lindsey Road, Drumcondra, Dublin, are named as co-defendants in the cases against the family-run business, which operates a number of creches in north Dublin. It is alleged that the defendants are “vicariously liable” and the child claims further damages for “personal injuries , loss and damage caused by the negligence, breach of duty and breach of statutory duty of the defendants”.It is understood up to 50 separate cases are to be brought against the defendants on behalf of children, and a further 20 on behalf of parents of children who attended the creches.

Tusla has issued proceedings alleging breaches of childcare regulations. It also ordered the chain’s four creches – at Glasnevin, Tolka Road, Shaw Street and Millbourne Avenue – to shut by the end of last year.
