    APPLEBROOK COUNTRY DAYSCHOOL, INC. v. THURMAN et al.
    (613 SE2d 192)
    Decided April 6, 2005.
    
      Downey & Cleveland, Joseph C. Parker, Hicks, Casey & Foster, William T. Casey, Jr., Christopher A. Townley, for appellant.
    
      Renzo S. Wiggins, for appellees.
   Ruffin, Chief Judge.

In Division 1 of Applebrook Country Dayschool v. Thurman, we found that the trial court erred in admitting expert testimony regarding the standard of care for supervision in a day care setting. The Supreme Court subsequently granted certiorari and reversed, holding that “[e]xpert testimony regarding infant sleep positioning is admissible in a negligent childcare supervision case to assist the jury in determining whether the childcare provider breached its duty of care.” Accordingly, we vacate Division 1 of our earlier opinion and adopt the judgment and opinion of the Supreme Court as our own. The Supreme Court’s reversal does not affect Divisions 2 and 3 of our prior opinion.

Judgment affirmed.

Smith, P. J., and Miller, J., concur. 
      
       264 Ga. App. 591, 591-594 (1) (591 SE2d 406) (2003).
