New Evidence Discovered: The Button Law Firm’s Lawsuit Against Children’s Courtyard Reveals Shocking Neglect

Austin Daycare's Failure to Act: A Pattern of Neglect at Children’s Courtyard

Upon seeing the shocking footage, Mario rushed to Children’s Courtyard to report the incident. Despite clear obligations under Texas childcare regulations, the daycare failed to report the incident to either state authorities or law enforcement. Instead, the daycare informed the parents that Ms. Hernandez would only be suspended for one day—a grossly inadequate response considering the severity of the abuse.

Children’s Courtyard had neglected its responsibilities before. Two months prior, on May 18, 2023, another family reported a similar incident involving the same employee, Ms. Hernandez. In this instance, the child was yanked up by both arms and violently thrown onto a nap mat. The daycare again chose not to report the incident or terminate the employee.

A Disturbing History of Violations at this Texas Daycare

As more information surfaced, it became clear that Children’s Courtyard had a history of similar violations. The state of Texas had previously cited the daycare for multiple failures to comply with minimum standards designed to protect children. This included a lack of proper employee training and supervision, which contributed to the repeated incidents of abuse.

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission and the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services conducted an independent investigation into the July incident. Their findings substantiated the claims against Children’s Courtyard, confirming that the daycare had violated multiple childcare licensing rules.
