On June 14, 2023 at 1:15pm, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Julia Placencia arrived unannounced for the Initial 10-Day Complaint regarding the allegation above. LPA met with director Shilpa Panech. There were seven infants, two teachers and an aide present.

LPA observed the infant room, conducted interviews and reviewed documents. Upon review of staff records, it has been determined that none of the three staff LPA observed in the infant room have proof of completion of an infant/toddler class (3 units).

Based on observations, interviews and record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be substantiated. California Code of Regulations, Title 22 is being cited on the attached LIC 9099D. Failure to submit Proof of Corrections (POC) by Plan of Correction date may result in additional civil penalties. ***Continued on LIC 9099C...
