I began working at Future Leader’s Learning Academy II on March the 9th. After one 6 hour training day with no pay, I was told that I would be able to start work without the sometimes required unpaid training. After this day, I was given a time card and allowed to write my daily times in and out. Unprofessionally, I was not asked to do paperwork until weeks after I started. This seemed odd, but due to the fact that I had never worked at a daycare before, it did not strike me as odd at first. While working at Future Leaders Learning Academy, I was responsible for four children ages 1,4, 5, and 7. I worked 3 times during the daytime before I began watching the children at night. No schedule of what the children should have been doing was laid out for me.instead, before the other new employee left me alone she told me what to feed the children and gave me the business telephone. I was then told that Cassandra, my boss, would call and check on me. Keep in mind that there is no paperwork done on me at this point or a background check. This cannot be legal. The kids never gave me much trouble even though I had been previously warned that they had no structure at home. The four year old began to urinate on himself on a daily basis. My boss, Cassandra, Required the mother to begin to bring the child pull ups. It became my job to assist the child in putting these on due to the fact that instead of pull ups they were depend diapers for the elderly. When he would urinate in the depends I was instructed by my boss Cassandra to let him sit in it until he learns to do better every time he did it. During this time I began to have skin to skin contact with the four year old. Soon after, I began to break out on my arms and chest. I texted my boss Cassandra and told her about it and she told me to go to Walgreens and buy Blue Star Ointment. The very next day after doing this Cassandra informed me at work that after taking off the four year olds shirt she counted 35 ringworms. Adding insult to injury, Jessica, my direct supervisor, had sectioned all of the toys that the child had been playing with off and told me that it was my responsibility to clean them. Cassandra still required me to work in the daytime anywhere from 12 -10:30. At these times I would be in contact with children of all of the different age groups. She never once asked to see the rashes, which by now had spread to my breast, back, and thigh. I was worried that maybe I’d scratched my head. On April 3, I got dressed for work and went to the hospital. I texted Cassandra two hours ahead of time and told her that I was going to the hospital and if I was late this would be the reason why. She immediately texted me back and informed me that she is a nurse and she could have checked my hair for me. I told her that the blue star ointment was not working that I needed proper medication. After seeing the doctor, I was given until April 4 to return to work. I was also told that I had multiple legions of ringworms and scabies. I immediately called Ms. Cassandra and she replied “That’s not a reason to be gone that long; I can’t excuse you for that long.” She added, “No children at this facility have scabies! ” After that conversation, I tried to contact Cassandra with no success. She would only reply to text and say that she would have her assistant call me. She hired someone to fill my position and has not contacted me about my schedule since. I contacted over 50 ringworms from this facility. I have contacted the Texas workforce about my unpaid wages and they have informed me that I am the 8th employee in line waiting on a wage claim from Mrs. Cassandra Whiteside. She continues to work and hire employees that she refuses to pay. This woman is a fraud. The private investigator at Texas workforce commission informed me that Cassandra has 6 months to file for bankruptcy again and she will owe me nothing. She has a private card reader in the facility that parents pay her on. She is not supposed to be allowed to handle her own money due to the number of people that she owes.
