It is possible that a lack of supervision caused a child to pinch another child in the classroom. However, it is possible for this type of interaction between two children to occur even if there was adequate supervision provided in the classroom. The staff member's in the classroom associated with Child#1 denied the allegation that they pinched Child#1 during interviews. Child#1 no longer attends this facility with the last day of care being 02/23/2023 per file review.

Based on the evidence collected during the investigation, the allegations that Staff did not properly supervise day care child may be valid. However, there is not enough preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation(s) did or did not occur, therefore at this time the above allegations are found to be unsubstantiated.

The notice of site inspection must remain posted for a period of 30 days during hours operation. Failure to maintain posting will result in a civil penalty of $100.00 dollars.

Exit interview conducted with assistant Director Susan Situ. Appeal rights discussed and explained.
