Vincent Chan received an 18-year prison sentence for 56 sexual offences committed while working at Bright Horizons in London. Staff reported him filming children in May 2024, but a couple claims managers dismissed earlier concerns about bite marks and bruises. The mother felt treated as "hysterical" despite her son refusing to attend claiming the worker was angry. Police discovered abuse footage on nursery iPads, and the facility has since shut down.
