Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) James Wilkerson arrived at this facility to amend a report dated 02/11/21. An initial visit was conducted on 11/18/20 via (FaceTime) and extended at that time. Thre are six children present during this visit today. During the course of this investigation, interviews were conducted with the licensee and children in care. A child had stated that he/she was hit on hand and it made him/her feel sad and cry. Other interviews with children in care stated that the licensee has not been observed to hit any child at all. A parent of the child who stated that he/she was hit on the hand did not observe any markings on the child's hand. The licensee denies ever hitting a child on the hand. LPA received conflicting information as to whether or not the above allegation did or did not happen and cannot prove or disprove the allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the allegation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. Appeal Rights discussed and provided along with a copy of this report to Ms. Barrera on this date. This is an amended report from an original report dated 02/11/21.

A Notrice of Site Visit was posted and a copy of this report must be made available upon request for three years.
