I dont think anyone suggested parents were ringing every half hour, the baby was 3 months old so realistically how long could he have being going to the nursery, I remember when I put my eldest in nursery at 9 months ringing in my lunchbreak to check as it would have been a new experience for him, obviously if your childs first experience of nursery is at age 3 this is a different issue, an easy way to prevent incidents like this is to put a policy in place that if a baby is expected at nursery and they dont turn up with no notification, the staff are obliged to call the parents.
