Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Martinez and Grisak conducted an unannounced complaint visit and met with the licensee Rajvinder Purewal. It was alleged the provider violated a child’s personal rights in her care, specifically when staff (S2) placed a child in the storage room off the main daycare area which is also a one car garage as punishment. The licensee denied the allegation stating there was a time when S2 did not close the door from the storage/garage area correctly after getting milk from the fridge and used the restroom after. The licensee stated while S2 used the restroom, she threw out diapers in the trash outside the day care door entrance. Based off interviews with the licensee and S2 it was stated the child (C1) went into the room and the door shut behind the child, thus the child began to scream. Both the Licensee and S2 stated the child was in there no longer than the amount of time it took S2 to use the restroom when they realized the child was in the room. LPA Martinez conducted interviews on 2/4/2020,2/5/20, 2/26/20, 3/3/20, 3/10/20, 3/11/20, and 3/13/20 with witnesses. It was stated during those interviews that child (C1) was not laying down for nap and had been getting up too much. It was stated through interviews that C1 was placed in the portion of the converted one car garage that has been made a storage area for the day care's extra toys and refrigerator.

 It was corroborated that C1 was observed by a witness in the storage/garage area with a mat and pillow crying. It was stated during interviews that C1 was then brought in by S2 who asked her if she was going to listen. C1 was then brought into the main day care area which is the converted two car garage of the home. The amount of time the child spent in the storage/garage area could not be determined through interviews. Based on the evidence obtained, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be substantiated.

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Martinez and Grisak conducted an unannounced complaint visit and met with Licensee Rajvinder Purewal. It was alleged there was a lack of supervision specifically that Raj is leaving the children unattended while she goes to the house behind hers, which she stated is owned by her. The licensee denied the allegation stating she bought the home for her own children who are adults to live in and that she remains in the non-rented portion of her home. On 4/29/19 the CCLD office received a facility sketch showing the home being separated by a wall on the side of the kitchen. This entailed the provider renting the formal living room, kitchen and entire upstairs while she remained in the living room with access to the laundry room, bathroom, backyard and the garage which was converted to a day care room and infant sleeping room. There was a key locked door that separated the two areas and LPA Martinez conduced a follow-up facility tour of the home on 5/17/19 once it was completed and reviewed that the adults renting had been fingerprinted and cleared to be in the home. Interviews were conducted on 2/4/2020,2/5/20, 2/26/20, 3/3/20, 3/10/20, 3/11/20, and 3/13/20. Through the interviews it could not be determined if the children were ever left alone.

 Interviews did state either the Licensee or S2 were present in the daycare alone or together while children were in care. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred, and the findings are unsubstantiated.
