13 | On 08/11/2021 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Mabika met with Licensee, Nellie Badillo to announce the findings of the above complaint investigation. Upon arrival, LPA was led on a tour of the day care and counted 10 children in care under the supervision of 3 staff. The children were wearing masks, and were socially distanced while actively engaged in meaningful activities.
This complaint investigation consisted of interviews with staff, parents, children and a review of other relevant documents before concluding. Licensee personally disclosed she did not know she had to inform parents by way of presenting them with an LIC 9224 form and have then sign an acknowledgement that would be kept in each child’s folder. Licensee states she informed the parents verbally. Based on evidence obtained, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met and the allegation of failure to notify parents of the issuance of a Type “A” citation has, therefore, been substantiated and a civil penalty assessment of $500.00 issued. See LIC 421C for the Civil penulty.
