North Fayette Daycare Owned by Smallis Posed 'Serious Danger'

A Moon Township woman and former daycare owner was charged this month with owning child pornography. In 2010, the Department of Public Welfare shuttered her childcare service amid reports of child neglect and violation of state safety regulations.

Agents from the state Department of Public Welfare in 2009 found a yellow blanket spread across a bathroom floor at the Little Folks Child Care Center in North Fayette. Childcare workers at the center would lay children on the floor to change their diapers with just the blanket beneath. No running water was available, and electrical wires hung from the ceiling of the Montour Church Road building.  To use a restroom, older children passed by shards of metal and broken toys, walking up splintered, loose steps to reach a toilet on an upper floor, according to Department of Public Welfare documents. The owner of the facility, Pamela Smallis, of Moon Township, was ordered to shut down the daycare in Sept. 2010 after department inspectors said …
