On July 31, 2024, at 09:12 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Courtnee Peebles delivered the findings to director Blanca Flores for complaint 10-CC-20240731085754. During the investigation LPA conducted confidential interviews with three staff (D), (S1), (S2), and obtained documents pertinent to the investigation.

On June 28, 2024, a complaint was received, with allegation stating, Staff does not ensure day care children are safely transported specifically that staff were buckling multiple children into one seatbelt and that staff transported children in their personal vehicle without a driver’s license, or insurance. Based on observations all staff have a valid driver’s license and insurance on file. Interviews revealed that they had heard that staff buckle multiple children into one seatbelt but had not observed that happening. Additional interviews revealed that when transporting children they are present counting the children that get on the bus to ensure there are not more than nine children are the bus at one time and only using one seatbelt.

It was also revealed this allegation was brought to the attention of management and it was investigated and not observed to have happened.

Based on interviews and record review, LPA is unable to corroborate the allegations that staff do not ensure day care children are safely transported. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the allegations did or did not occur, therefore the allegations are unsubstantiated.

An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report along with the appeal rights were provided to Director Blanca Flores. A notice of site visit was handed to licensee and must remain posted for 30 days.
