Just look at the following incident which happened in daycare center .After reading this article if you haven't made any enquiries regarding your kid's daycare center then its an eyeopener.An Owatonna woman’s child foster care and family child care licenses have been revoked by the Minnesota Department of Human Services after an infant death occurred in her home last November.
According to documents from the Department of Human Services, Joleen Anderson of Owatonna was found responsible for serious maltreatment or neglect of a child after Steele County Human Services, Rice County Social Services and law enforcement investigated an incident last year.
The documents state that on Nov. 15, 2013, Anderson placed an infant on its stomach with a blanket in a mesh-sided crib with a sheet that wasn't tight-fitting. She then left the infant on the lower level of the home and went to the upper level, and left the infant’s supervision to another individual for about 15 minutes.

She then left the infant on the lower level of the home and went to the upper level, and left the infant’s supervision to another individual for about 15 minutes.
When Anderson went to wake the infant about 30 minutes later, she found it face down and unresponsive. Anderson immediately began CPR and called 911, but emergency responders were unable to resuscitate the infant, and the child died.The Commissioner of the Department of Human Services determined that the health, safety and rights of children in Anderson’s care were in “imminent risk of harm,” and her family child care and child foster care licenses were immediately suspended temporarily.
But because of these violations, the Department of Human Services revoked Anderson’s family child care license as well as her child foster care license — a license she shared with her husband, Michael — on Aug. 20.
The Andersons have 10 days to appeal the license revocations. However, if they don’t, they will be disqualified from receiving licenses for seven years under state law.But Anderson also has charges pending against her in Steele County District Court.In June, Anderson was indicted by a grand jury in court on charges of child endangerment, including one gross misdemeanor and one felony. Because of the indictment, details on the proceeding are sealed. According to a document from the Department of Human Services, on June 21 a “vulnerable adult” left the Dornquasts’ facility without supervision and was gone for about two hours before he or she was found by a community member who called 911.
Although facility staff weren’t disqualified as a result of the maltreatment determination, the Dornquasts were fined $1,000.
