It was alleged that staff made inappropriate comments towards the daycare children. Facility Representative and staff members denied the allegation. Facility Representative and staff members stated that they would never make inappropriate comments to any daycare children.

In addition, it was alleged that the facility is operating out of ratio. Facility Representative and staff members denied the allegation. Facility Representative and Assistant Director stated that they provide coverage in the classrooms for staff breaks and when needed.

Based on interviews conducted and record review of staff timecards and sign in/sign out sheets, there is not enough corroboration and evidence regarding the allegations. Due to conflicting information obtained from the interviews, although the allegations may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore the above allegations are found to be unsubstantiated.

A Notice of Site Visit (LIC 9213) was given to Facility Representative, Aireen Turner and must remain posted on, or immediately adjacent to, the interior side of the main door for 30 days. Appeal Rights (LIC 9058) was provided. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with Facility Representative, Aireen Turner.
