On 03/11/22 at 1:14 p.m., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Rajani Goudreau arrived at the facility to conduct an unannounced complaint inspection for the purpose of delivering the above listed allegation. Upon arrival, LPA met with the director, Ana King and disclosed the purpose of the inspection. LPA proceeded to tour the facility and observed the following ratio’s: Infant classroom #1: 7 children/2 staff members, Toddler A: 12 napping infants/1staff, Toddler B: 8 napping infants/1 staff, Toddler C: 8 children/3 staff.

On December 21, 2021, Community Care Licensing (CCL) received a complaint alleging facility staff co-mingled daycare children who were exposed to a contagious hand, foot and mouth disease. During the course of the investigation, interviews were conducted with staff members, daycare parents, and record review was conducted. Based on staff statement’s, the exposed children who didn’t show any symptoms of the disease remained in care and were combined with the non-exposed classrooms. According to staff, classrooms were combined in order to disinfect and clean the exposed classrooms. Staff disclosed, all the children were checked throughout the day for signs of the disease and the classrooms were continuously cleaned and sanitized to further spread the disease. Due to conflicting information obtained the allegation is found to be unsubstantiated. See LIC9099-C continuation page...
