Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jo Ann Legaspi conducted a complaint inspection to conclude the investigation regarding the above allegation. Due to the COVID 19 outbreak, this inspection was done as a tele visit on FaceTime. Elina Gonzalez, Licensee's daughter/assistant, provided translation services as needed. Present in the home was the Licensee, one (1) assistant, one (1) infant, one (1) toddler, and two (2) school aged children.

It was alleged that the facility outdoor play is in disrepair. Licensing, facility and outside source records were reviewed. Daycare children and their parents were interviewed. Children and their parents denied the allegation. Some daycare parents have not been in the backyard areas while others have been in the backyard areas. Recent photographs from an outside source depict debris in the backyard areas. The Department conducted two (2) video tours of the backyard areas and did not observe the waste. Two (2) landscapers maintain the backyard on a weekly basis; they stated the backyard is not in disrepair.

Due to conflicting information, the allegation that the facility outdoor play is in disrepair has been determined to be unsubstantiated. A finding that the complaint is unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. No deficiencies cited.

A Notice of Site Visit (LIC 9213) is to be posted for thirty (30) days. LPA electronically provided Licensee with the LIC 9213. An exit interview was conducted. A copy of this report and Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC 9058) will be e-mailed to the Licensee. The Licensee was advised that acknowledgement of the receipt of the report is to be received within twenty-four hours.
