De’neishia Shateria Garner O2B Kids daycare worker arrested for causing 4 year old child to crack their head after intentionally shaking playhouse to teach ‘misbehaving’ child a lesson. 

A daycare worker at a Florida childcare facility has been accused of ‘intentionally’ shaking a playhouse to ‘teach a boy a lesson’, after scaling the structure despite being told not to, only to cause the boy to fall and suffer a cracked head and being rushed to hospital.

De’neishia Shateria Garner, 30, of Gainesville and an employee at O2B Kids was arrested on Monday after allegedly shaking a playhouse, causing a four-year-old child to fall head-first onto a concrete surface.

An arrest report stated the day-care worker who was supervising children on the playground at O2B Kids Gainesville (4929 NW 43rd Street ) taking exception when a 4 year old climbed the playhouse and in turn ‘intentionally’ shaking the playhouse so the child would fall off. The child reportedly fell from the top of the playhouse to the ground.

But there was more to come.

‘The child reportedly got up, brushed himself off, and continued playing with the other children, but a few minutes later, the child climbed the playhouse again, and Garner allegedly walked quickly to the playhouse and began to “violently” shake it, causing the child to fall backward and flip over onto his head,’ alachuachronicle reported.

A Gainesville Police Department officer responded to the daycare facility and reported that the child fell head-first from a height of about five feet onto concrete pavement and that the entire incident was recorded on surveillance cameras.

The victim was reportedly transported to the emergency room, where he received nine stitches for a deep laceration on his head and multiple scans for possible internal injuries.

During police questioning, Garner allegedly admitted to intentionally shaking the playhouse to warn the child not to climb that high. 

She said she told the child, ‘We keep our feet on the ground.” She reportedly said that she saw the child climb the playhouse again and intentionally shook it again to scare the child.’

Garner has no previous criminal convictions. She has been charged with aggravated child abuse, with bail set at $10K.

Not immediately clear is whether Gaines continued to be employed at 02B Kids.
