A daycare in Peachtree City is under investigation after a two-year-old girl was left alone outside in hot weather. Pamela Johnson, a mother of two, discovered via live camera feed that her daughter was unattended on the playground while temperatures soared into the high 80s, with a heat index of 95°F. The child was left outside for 35 minutes before staff realized she was missing. Johnson reported that the child appeared to collapse due to the heat but was not given immediate medical attention. The daycare’s director, Melissa Staples, stated that the teacher responsible was fired and denied the child showed any distress or needed medical care. Johnson, who had chosen the daycare for its camera system, is now considering moving her children to a different facility but remains unsure about future options.
