(Nav Sangha/CTV News Edmonton) Two people are facing charges after allegations of assault at the Little Stars Montessori Early Learning Center in Spruce Grove. On March 6, RCMP got a complaint about an alleged assault at the daycare on Pioneer Road. As a result of the investigation, police have laid charges against Dimpy Bawa, 32, and Shivani Shivani, 29. Bawa was charged with two counts of assault with a weapon and assault. Shivani was charged with two counts of assault. Both Bawa and Shivani were let go from the daycare at the 'onset' of the investigation, police said, and added that the daycare has been 'cooperative with investigators.' They have been released and are scheduled to appear in court on Sept. 17 in Stony Plain. Four victims have been identified, RCMP said. The assaults are said to have taken place on Feb. 19, 2025, with reports coming in between March 6 and March 12. Police believe there may be more victims. Little Stars daycare received a probationary licence in March due to 'safety concerns,' which temporarily removed their ability to care for infants. That licence expired June 12. The province has said that Child Care Licensing is monitoring the program. If your child attends this daycare and you believe they may have been involved, Parkland RCMP ask that you contact them at 825-220-7267.
