FORMER SCOTTDALE DAY CARE WORKER ORDERED TO SERVE TWO YEARS PROBATION

A former Scottdale day care center worker was ordered this week to serve two years of probation for assaulting a child in her care.  The Trib reports that 59-year-old Krista Ondish of Madison entered a guilty plea to child endangerment and simple assault in connections with an incident in September of 2025 where she used force while scolding a child.  Witnesses said Ondish pinned the girl in a corner of a room at the day care center and violently shoved her to the ground.  She was fired three days after the incident.
