WHITBY, Ont. – Police say a woman who runs a daycare in Whitby, Ont., has been charged with criminal negligence after a child in her care was allegedly sexually assaulted last year.
Durham Regional Police say the alleged assault happened at a home daycare between February and June of 2018.
Investigators say a relative of the woman who ran the daycare allegedly victimized a girl who was four years old at the time.
Police say that the 36-year-old woman operating the daycare was arrested on Wednesday and charged with person in charge not providing the necessaries of life and criminal negligence causing bodily harm.
Last week, a 39-year-old man who lived in the home where the daycare was run was arrested and charged with sexual assault and invitation to sexual touching.
He has also been charged with indecent exposure and making sexually explicit material available to a child under the age of 14.
