Physical assaults of children in their care have resulted in a Junction City day care’s license suspended upon recommendation by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.
An Investigator toured Little Rainbow Day Care Home April 28th. In the license suspension order, the investigator said they witnessed one toddler being struck in the face by an adult, another pushed into a cabinet and other physical actions taken to move children from one activity to another.
The screaming and yelling by one staffer towards children at the day care was also cited, and the day care’s owner, Pauline Leone, was identified as attempting to keep the investigator from returning to the home after they stepped outdoors.
Leone has 30 days to appeal the suspension.
