Here College Station Covers The Button Law Firm’s Lawsuit Against Local Daycare Following Dangerous Incident Involving Toddler

Toddler Left Outside Alone at Daycare: Lawsuit Filed After Shocking Discovery

As reported by Here College Station, The Button Law Firm has filed a lawsuit against Aggieland Country School in College Station after a toddler was repeatedly left unattended outside during daycare hours. The disturbing practice came to light during a state inspection, revealing just how unsafe conditions had become at the Montessori-style daycare center.

According to the report by Here College Station, a state licensing inspector visited the daycare in November 2023 and found the child locked outside alone, visibly distressed, and wearing only a T-shirt and jeans in 60-degree weather. The child had been left outside as punishment for crying or having trouble falling asleep—something the staff allegedly did on a regular basis.

Daycare Fails to Report Dangerous Incidents to Parents

What’s especially troubling is that the daycare never informed the child’s family about the incident. Under Texas law, daycares are required to notify parents immediately when something serious happens to a child in their care. In this case, the parents only found out after a state official began an independent investigation.

This lack of transparency violated minimum standards and completely broke the trust that families place in childcare providers.

Eight Violations Uncovered at Aggieland Country School

As detailed by Here College Station, the state inspector found multiple violations during the visit, eight in total. These included:

• Allegations of child neglect
• Staff failing to notify a parent of a serious incident
• Improper supervision of children
• Missing training documentation for employees

These are not small technicalities. These violations indicate a dangerous environment where staff were improperly trained or willfully ignored safety protocols. Either way, children were being left vulnerable.

The Button Law Firm Is Taking a Stand for Child Safety

The Button Law Firm is representing the family in holding the daycare accountable for what happened. Our team focuses on helping families when children are hurt, neglected, or mistreated in daycare settings. We believe no child should ever be left in harm’s way while under professional supervision.

As covered in the Here College Station article, this case is part of a larger push to improve oversight and enforce consequences for daycares that fail to meet legal and moral standards. We’re fighting not just for this one child, but for every Texas family that trusts their child to a licensed childcare provider.

A Call for Better Oversight of Texas Daycares

Sadly, this case isn’t an isolated event. Across Texas, inspections continue to reveal serious safety concerns in daycare facilities. In many cases, it’s not until something terrible happens that parents find out their child has been at risk. That’s why it’s critical to demand change and why legal action like this can lead to safer systems for everyone.

The Importance of Media Coverage in Holding Daycares Accountable

Coverage from outlets like Here College Station plays a crucial role in informing the public about safety concerns at local childcare centers. By reporting on legal actions and state investigations, these articles help parents make informed decisions and hold facilities accountable. Transparency is the first step toward change, and public awareness can drive better protections for all children.
