On 04/03/24 at 11:25AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Luigi Gargaro conducted an unannounced complaint visit to the facility to deliver the findings for the above allegation. During the course of the investigation, analyst conducted interviews with the reporting party, the licensee, her daughter assistant and children in care.

Based on the information gathered, it could not be conclusively proved or disproved whether the inappropriate contact incident between day care children as described occurred or, if so, whether it may have been caused due to a lack of supervision by the provider. Based on the conflicting, uncorroborated testimony he received, analyst could not definitively prove or disprove the allegation. Though the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.
