Waukesha daycare worker accused of abuse appears in court
NewsLocal News
Heather Miller is accused of physically abusing children at The Lawrence School daycare.
A loaded gun that was not locked in a box was found in an unlocked office inside The Lawrence School last week when authorities searched the daycare. State inspection records show authorities also found an unlocked bottle of prescription medication. The Lawrence School serves babies and children up to 12 years old. It is the source of a long list of violations posted on the state’s website that monitors daycare centers from when inspectors last checked the facility on Sept. 2 and Sept. 14, subsequently shutting it down.

WAUKESHA, Wis. — Authorities found an unlocked, loaded inside the Waukesha daycare shut down over child abuse allegations.
Investigators say they also found a bottle of prescription drugs out in the open, when they searched the daycare on September 14th.
All this, as Heather Miller, the worker charged with felony child abuse, was in court again Monday.
WATCH: Neither Miller, nor her mother, answered questions after the court appearance. Her mother only said, “innocent until proven guilty” as she walked out of the courtroom.
Heather Miller leaves courtroom with no comment
The discussion in court centered around whether Miller qualifies for legal representation by a public defender. Miller says she has no money to pay for an attorney.
Miller is not in jail, because she posted her $6,000 bail. She revealed her mother paid for that.
According to a criminal complaint, Miller held a baby face-down in a crib until he appeared to struggle to breathe.
A coworker reported it to the leaders of The Lawrence School, who have not returned our calls for comment.
The state website that shares daycare violations and ratings per the Wisconsin Department of Child and Family Services, has posted dozens of new violations reported from when investigators checked The Lawrence School on September 2 & 14.
Waukesha Police helped shut the facility down on September 14th.
One of the most shocking violations reveals an unlocked, loaded gun was found in an office that was not locked. A bottle of prescription medication was also found in the open.
Inspectors found that leaders at The Lawrence School did not investigate the abuse or notify authorities and kept Miller in her role working with babies. It’s unclear whether any of them could still face charges.
There are also violations referencing Miller forcing infants and toddlers to sleep and eat at the same time, sometimes physically restraining them.
During an inspection in April, inspectors also couldn’t find Miller’s daycare worker certification or educational qualifications on record. Her bio on The Lawrence School’s website says she is a mother of two, who studied Childhood and Elementary Education at UW Lacrosse, and has more than 25 years of experience in childcare.
Miller’s next court appearance is on Thursday September 27th at 1 p.
m.
