Mother Alleges Daycare Employee Engaged in Inappropriate Behavior With 10-Year-Old Son [Video]

A daycare employee is now out of a job due to a mother alleging that the worker engaged in inappropriate behavior with her 10-year-old son.

Authorities, including Clayton County Police and the Department of Family and Children Services, have initiated an investigation into the matter.

In an interview with Channel 2’s Candace McCowan, the mother, Grace Shoyelu, expressed her concerns about a new staff member at the Youth Life Center.

Shoyelu became suspicious when she discovered the worker’s photo as her son’s phone screensaver, which appeared to be a self-taken picture.

Upon further inspection of her son’s phone, Shoyelu uncovered a series of messages that seemed to have been ongoing for weeks. “I went through his text messages because that was the first thing that I thought, and her name was saved in his phone as mommy. It was a bunch of ‘I love you’s’ and ‘what are you wearing,’” said Shoyelu.

The conversations contained disturbing content and included inappropriate images, such as one where the worker wore a revealing skirt. Shoyelu remarked, “That’s not a picture that you send to a 10-year-old. That’s a picture that you send to your man.”

The mother also revealed that the worker had purchased her son’s clothing, shoes, and even a gold chain.

During an investigation visit to her apartment, a Department of Family and Children’s Services worker spoke with the 10-year-old, who disclosed an incident where the worker had allegedly rubbed his leg on the way back from a field trip.

Channel 2 Action News refrained from disclosing the worker’s identity, which has not been revealed for legal reasons as she has not yet been charged. This lack of accountability has left Grace Shoyelu deeply disturbed and outraged.
