however there was not enough evidence to confirm this as LPA was unable to determine the exact amount a time a child was in reset. Evidence also suggests that children in reset are encouraged to rejoin the classroom when they are ready and are constantly asked if they would like to rejoin the classroom. It was also alleged that a child was not offered a snack or prize while on reset, however the evidence gathered did not support the claim.

In regard to allegations 2 and 3, it was alleged that a staff member hit a child in care in response to their behavior. Evidence gathered through interviews, staff record review, and observations of staff interactions suggest that these allegations are not true and did not occur.

Based on the evidence that was gathered, LPA determined preponderance of evidence standard has not been met, therefore, the allegations are determined to be unsubstantiated.

There were no Title 22 deficiencies as a result of the investigation. An exit interview was conducted, and the report was reviewed with the licensee. LPA provided Appeal Rights and a Notice of Site Visit that must be posted for 30 days. (2/2)
