On 1/6/2025 all investigative interviews were completed.

Based on LPA Laureano’s observation on multiple occasions, interviews with staff, parents and children and document review, no information was disclosed that licensee is allowing uncleared adults to provide supervision to day care children. There is not enough information to prove or disprove the allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the above allegations did or did not occur. Therefore, the allegation is found to be unsubstantiated.

An exit interview was conducted director Celia Fisher and a copy report was provided.
