Georgia – In a distresing incident that has led to legal action, a Georgia mother has filed a lawsuit against a daycare facility located in Georgia. The lawsuit stems from severe injuries sustained by her nine-month-old son, VirgiI, who was allegedly left in scaIding hot water by a daycare employee for several minutes.

According to surveillance footage obtained by local news outlet WSB, the incident occurred after the baby had an accident that required a diaper change. The employee is seen forcefully removing the infant’s clothing and subsequently placing him into a sink filled with hot water. Upon realizing the baby’s distress, the employee panicked and was observed running around the facility for more than 15 minutes without seeking immediate medical assistance.

The Georgia mother, Sharice recounted the harrowing experience, stating that her son had to endure months of recovery due to the burns. “I had to watch them pop his blisters; no amount of pain medicine could help him,” she lamented. Alongside her attorney, MichaeI, the mother has initiated a lawsuit against the daycare center. The lawyer expressed deep concern over the facility’s handling of the situation, emphasizing the breach of trust placed in childcare providers.

The lawsuit asserts that the employee violated established daycare protocols by attempting to bathe the 9-month-old baby, as the standard procedure for such situations involves using wet wipes. “They were supposed to use wet wipes,” he clarified. Following the incident, the Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning conducted a three-month investigation. The findings indicated that the employee’s actions were detrimental to the child’s well-being. Additionally, the investigation revealed that the facility failed to adhere to child-to-staff ratio regulations and did not maintain a separate area for children under three years old.

The owner of the daycare center acknowledged awareness of the incident but declined to comment further. Recent state inspection reports indicate that the facility has implemented corrective measures since the occurrence and is currently in good standing with state regulations. However, the incident has raised significant concerns among parents and the local community regarding childcare safety and adherence to established protocols.

The baby’s mom expressed profound disappointment over the lack of accountability and corrective action following the incident. “I feel like nobody’s done anything to try and make it right for him; he needs justice,” she asserted. The lawsuit seeks to address these grievances and ensure that such incidents do not recur, highlighting the critical importance of stringent safety measures and proper training in childcare settings.

This incident underscores the vital responsibility of childcare providers to uphold safety protocols and maintain a secure environment for children. As the legal proceedings unfold, it serves as a poignant reminder for parents and guardians to remain vigilant and informed about the practices and standards of facilities entrusted with the care of their children.
