On 7/17/19, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Helen Estrella conducted an unannounced visit for the purpose of conducting a complaint investigation. Upon arrival, LPA met with the Director Shirani Perera and informed her the nature of the visit. There was a census of 30 preschool children being supervised by 5 staff and the Director.

Based on evidence gathered over the course of the investigation, there is insufficient evidence to support the allegations that facility staff inappropriately handled day care child. Therefore, the allegation is deemed - Unsubstantiated. Unsubstantiated - A finding that the complaint is unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.

Exit interview conducted and a copy of this report and appeal rights provided to the facility.
