After TMJ4 learned that the Oak Creek KinderCare unexpectedly closed over the weekend, we reached out to B’Ivory LaMarr, the attorney representing the family of the one-year-old boy who was exposed to cocaine at the facility back in May.
“I’m not sure if it’s just temporary or whether it’s permanent,” said LaMarr.
Our Elaine Rojas-Castillo started digging and called KinderCare.

One of their representatives confirmed that the Oak Creek location has been closed due to alleged licensing issues.
They went on to say that the facility is expected to be closed for at least 10 days and that the national offices plan to send out a notice to the parents with an update.
“I can tell you that the licensing board has reached out to one of the parents of the 11-month-old boy from this past May to testify in some proceedings against that facility,” said LaMarr.
