On 02/19/2021, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jose Penate arrived at facility to conduct an unannounced complaint inspection to close complaint. LPA met with Administrator, Hailey Simon, LPA observed eleven day care children in classroom A with two teachers.
During the course of the investigation LPA interviewed staff, relevant parties and reviewed facility files. During the investigation LPA researched all sign in and sign out sheets and compared them to staff members and children attendance, no discrepancy was noticed to have been out of ratio. Based off of interviews it was discussed that it is practice, for this facility to care for more than 12 children with only one staff member present.
Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur; therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.
