Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kristal Goodell met with Assistant Director (AD) Dominique Collins to deliver findings regarding the allegation listed above. Director Robin Sweeney was also present. Upon arrival LPA observed children and staff preparing for naptime. During today's inspection, LPA observed 15 children with two staff members in the purple room, 8 children with one staff member in the 2 year old classroom and 11 children with one staff member in the pre-k classroom. During the investigation LPA toured the facility and conducted observations of children activities both indoor and outdoor. LPA also reviewed records and obtained copies of documents related to the allegation. Interviews with children and staff were also conducted. It was alleged lack of supervision resulted in children hurting each other and engaging in physical altercations while staff are present. However, through interviews with both children and staff, LPA obtained information regarding supervision which conflicted with the allegation listed above. Therefore, LPA was unable to determine if a violation occurred. Based on the investigation conducted, although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. As a result, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.

No deficiencies cited. LPA reviewed report with AD. Copy of report provided. Notice of site visit issued and must remain posted for 30 days. Appeal Rights also issued and discussed.

Unsubstantiated
