[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In a few weeks, someone should submit a Freedom of Information Act request to the DC government to find out if this incident was reported to the inspectors and what the District and the day care did in response.  I'd also like to know if this is the first such incident for the particular day care.

VA has all of the day care inspection report results on-line so you can easily read about a day care and learn if it was ever reported (or self-reported) to have forgotten a child at the park.  (Indeed some have!)  Having that type of violation history is a deal breaker for me.  Too bad the DC government is not as transparent in this area.  That ought to change.

OMG, this is a parent's worst nightmare.  So relieved the child was okay.  What would have stopped someone from walking off from the park with the boy after the class left?  If the child didn't protest to being carried off by a strange adult the nannies would have had no reason to think anything was amiss.  And what was the park attendant doing that he or she didn't notice an abandoned toddler?  I'd also like to kow if the District will investigate this aspect of the fiasco.

The nannies who were keeping watch over the boy are the heroines in this story.

The memo from FCC said, among other things, that the Office of Child Care Licensing has been notified of the incident.  I also believe that disciplinary action has already been taken against at least one teacher.  This is a sad incident for what is an incredibly committed staff.
