Video Captures El Segundo Daycare Worker Dropping Toddler, Causing Traumatic Brain Injury: Lawsuit
The parents say surveillance video shows a worker tossed the 23-month-old about 6 feet into the air before he suffered brain injury and hearing loss.
- A Los Angeles family filed a lawsuit against the Bay Club El Segundo for negligence and fraud, alleging a childcare worker severely injured their 23-month-old son on March 17, 2025, in an incident captured on surveillance video.
- The lawsuit claims the employee tossed the toddler approximately 6 feet into the air before failing to catch him, causing the child to hit a hardwood floor and suffer a traumatic brain injury and hearing loss.
- Parents allege the Bay Club falsely told them an employee 'fell over while she was in a squatting position' and the child was 'only about 1.5 feet above the ground,' but surveillance footage contradicts this account.
- Attorney Ryan Saba of Rosen Saba LLP argues the facility should have been licensed by the California Department of Social Services because parents were permitted to leave the premises for the nearby Manhattan Country Club.
- The Bay Club stated, 'We are unable to comment on ongoing litigation,' while emphasizing that the safety of members and families remains their highest priority as legal proceedings continue.
