Several toddlers have escaped injury after a car ploughed into an inner Sydney childcare centre, forcing the owner to leap for her life.
Jayne Morgan, owner of Explore & Develop Breakfast Point, was talking on the phone with a colleague when a car accelerated towards the centre on Tuesday morning just before 9am.
Several toddlers were playing outside when the car drove through the fence, but no one was injured, she said.
"I don't even want to think about it, I was so terrified one of the kids had been hurt," Ms Morgan told AAP.
The commotion began when a car was spinning out of control and hit a parked car at a nearby supermarket car park, Ms Morgan said.
"Then it came flying straight to me, I had to leap out of the way," she said.
The children were rushed inside, emergency services were called and the driver, a man in his 80s, was taken to hospital, she said.
NSW Fire & Rescue have removed the car, which drove into the fence and into the centre on Cross St.
Ms Morgan praised her staff for acting quickly.
"I could hear my staff yelling 'get the children inside now'," she said.
