Zoila Dominici was on her way to Divino Niño daycare for an early pick-up on 15 September when she received the tragic news. Just a month shy of his second birthday, Ms Dominici’s son Nicholas was pronounced dead at the Bronx home-based daycare centre.
Nicholas’ grief-stricken parents and the Kingsbridge Heights community are now grappling with the disturbing reality surrounding the little boy’s sudden death — he and three other children at the daycare were exposed to fentanyl, according to New York City officials.
