Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Marea Behvand and Seychelle De Luca met with Licensee Danelle Ingalls. Upon arrival, LPAs observed 20 preschool and school-age children with two staff members.
It was alleged that Staff #1 posted a photo on Snapchat, a social media site, without written consent from parent. The facility submitted a written UIR by fax on 7/29/19. During the investigation, LPAs conducted interviews and obtained relevant documents. Staff #1 stated that, although the photo was taken through the Snapchat filter, the photo was actually not posted publicly. Staff #1 indicated the photo was sent to parent privately through text message. Interviews and UIR revealed the facility did not have a consent for photo release form prior to this incident. The facility has created a form since this incident has occurred.
Due to conflicting information, LPAs were unable to determine whether Staff #1 posted a photo on Snapchat, the above allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. Although the allegation may be valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove or disprove. An exit interview was conducted, Appeal Rights were provided, and a Notice of Site Visit was posted.

Unsubstantiated
