MARSHALL, Texas, Nov. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- A Marshall mom is furious that her 11-month-old daughter experienced second-degree burns on both feet while in the care of Ms. Anita's Academic Center in August 2023. Ashley McMullen is now suing the daycare center, claiming the facility and its caregivers were negligent when they took her infant daughter outside in 104-degree heat and allowed her to walk barefoot, causing burn injuries to the soles of her feet.

Key Points: 
  • "I am heartbroken because my daughter's severe burns could have easily been prevented by common sense," says McMullen.
  • "Everyone knows the Texas heat is dangerous in August, and these caregivers should know infants have particularly delicate skin.
  • I am beside myself that Ms. Anita's Academic Center took my baby outside without socks or shoes."
  • We hope this lawsuit serves as a reminder of the essential role child safety regulations play in protecting little ones, like our client's infant daughter, at daycare centers."
