Mom Distraught After Daughter, 2, Was Reportedly Left Alone on Daycare Bus for Several Hours with No Coat or Shoes

Mar. 15, 2025

An Oregon mom is furious after her toddler daughter was reportedly left on a bus in near-freezing temperatures for several hours.

Employees at theFamily Building Blocks-owned daycare reportedly discovered Robinson’s daughter on the bus around the time it was supposed to bring her home, and called her mom to inform her of the situation.

But when she learned the truth, it took her “a minute” to wrap her head around what had happened to her daughter.

“I said, ‘I’m trying to process this information, because what do you mean?’ And so it takes me a minute but I’m like, ‘How long was she on the bus for?’ ” Robinson recalled, “and [the daycare worker] said, ‘The whole class period.’ And I was like, ‘What do you mean?’ ”

“All of them didn’t do their job. It wasn’t just the bus driver. Everyone is liable, everyone is responsible, everyone needs to take accountability, all of them,” she said.

Robinson said she has received “a series of apologies” since the incident, and “that’s nice but it doesn’t change anything that they let happen.”
