Findings: The center self-reported an incident that occurred on December 6, 2019. A staff person was heard by a parent using an authoritative voice while in the indoor gym with children. When the parent entered the gym, her son was visibly frightened and sitting on the floor behind the staff member. The child allegedly refused to come to the mother and whispered to her when she came to him that he wanted to go home and see his father. Once the child was calmed down after leaving the center, he told his mother that the staff person threw him into the wall. The staff member was placed on administrative leave then terminated after the tapes were viewed. The parent's written statement was received. Injurious treatment includes subjecting a child to verbal abuse intended to cause mental distress which includes shouting and shaming. The director observed the video and states the child was standing behind the teacher then went and closed the gym door. The teacher then immediately went over to the child and backed him into the wall. It is not clear if the teacher put her hands on the child. The teacher was seen leaning down in the child's face and the child having a frightened look. |
