Toddler suffered brain injury at El Segundo's Bay Club daycare, lawsuit alleges
Key Points:
- A daycare center at the Bay Club in El Segundo is being sued after a 23-month-old boy, C.K., was allegedly severely injured by a worker who swung and dropped him, causing traumatic brain injury and hearing loss.
- Surveillance footage from March 2025 shows the worker swinging the toddler through her legs and then seemingly tossing him into the air, missing the catch and falling onto him.
- The lawsuit accuses the Bay Club of negligence and fraud, claiming the club misled the parents about the nature of the incident, falsely stating the child was only about 1.5 feet above the ground during the fall.
- The parents argue the video reveals the true severity of the worker’s actions and the lasting harm to their child.
- The Bay Club declined to comment on the lawsuit but emphasized that safety is their highest priority.
