Labour leader Joseph Muscat visited the Ursuline Crèche in Sliema today and said it was a humbling experience.
Accompanied by Mrs Muscat, the Labour leader handed toys and books to the children and made a donation to the institute.
The crèche is home to 34 nuns and 46 children including babies of under two months.
Dr Muscat thanked the nuns for their work and for their efforts to give a good upbringing to the children.
