On May 29, 2025, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Stacey Williams met with Facility Representative, Eva Prado for the purpose of opening and closing a complaint investigation. LPA observed eighty two children supervised by ten staff.

It was alleged that staff did not meet children's diapering needs. The facility was toured. Interviews were conducted with the Reporting Party and facility staff. Consistent statements were received acknowledging that a diaper policy is in place; where children are to be changed every two hours and on an as needed basis. Staff acknowledged that C1's diaper was not changed prior to leaving the center and as result C1 left the center with a soiled diaper. Diapering policies and meeting the needs of children in care was discussed with management staff on May 1, 2025, at which time an advisory notice was provided.
