A 21-year-old day care worker in Georgia is facing multiple felonies after she was allegedly caught on surveillance footage physically abusing young children in her care, slamming multiple infants and leaving them visibly injured. Nicole Cabrera was taken into custody last week and charged with nine felony counts of first-degree cruelty to children, court records reviewed by Law&Crime show.

Cabrera, who is also facing one misdemeanor count of battery, was employed at a facility called Step by Step Childcare & Learning Center in Lyons, Georgia, which is about 185 miles southeast of Atlanta.

According to a report from Savannah, Georgia, ABC affiliate WJCL, a parent filed a complaint with the facility in late November, when a mother noticed that her infant daughter had visible bruising that had not been there before she left for day care.

“I noticed she had injuries to the left side of her ear and the back of her head,” the mother, identified as Briana Lopez, told the station. “That was not — you know, she went to daycare fine, that was not normal.”

Lopez said she went to the facility and spoke to several members of the staff before demanding to see surveillance footage of her daughter. What she saw on the footage was appalling, per the report.

“I saw how she slammed my child over and over,” Lopez said, referring to Cabrera.
