California Family Sues Daycare After Toddler Severely Injured in Staff Incident

A California family has filed a lawsuit against a daycare center after their two-year-old son suffered serious injuries when a staff member threw him into the air and lost grip, causing him to fall on his head. The parents claim that security footage shows the worker tossing their child, contradicting the daycare's initial statement that the boy fell from a height of about half a meter. The child sustained a traumatic brain injury, hearing loss, and additional facial injuries. The lawsuit also alleges that the daycare operates without a proper license, falsely claiming exemption from licensing requirements. The parents are seeking damages for negligence, assault, fraud, and emotional distress. The daycare network has not yet responded to the allegations.
