In early October 2026, an incident occurred in Florianópolis where a three-year-old child left a municipal daycare center unaccompanied and was found alone on a busy street. While police reports suggested a staff member located the child, the mother claimed a family friend discovered her. The Florianópolis City Hall labeled the event ‘unacceptable’ and initiated an administrative investigation and on-site inspection. Following a similar incident in Ibirama involving a two-year-old child leaving a Child Education Center, the Public Prosecutor's Office of Santa Catarina (MPSC) launched a formal inquiry. The MPSC has requested administrative records and video surveillance footage from the municipality and the facility management to determine if security and supervision protocols were followed. Prosecutor Laura Ayub Salvatori stated the investigation seeks to ‘evaluate the adequacy of security flows to prevent future occurrences and ensure child safety.’ ## Timeline ### 2026-10-14: Santa Catarina Public Prosecutor's Office investigates child safety incident The Santa Catarina Public Prosecutor's Office is investigating how a two-year-old child left a daycare center unaccompanied in Ibirama, Brazil, to evaluate security protocols. 6 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/santa-catarina-public-prosecutors-office-investigates-child-safety-incident ### 2026-10-06: Florianópolis daycare child found alone on busy street A three-year-old child was found alone on a busy street after leaving a daycare center in Florianópolis.
