On April 29, 2026, at 10:38 a.m., Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Angela Nguyen and Saray Siqueiros-Frayre conducted a complaint inspection to deliver findings regarding the above allegation. LPAs met with Licensee Sandra Cabrera, who granted access to the facility and provided a tour. There were 4 children present during the inspection, including 2 children under 24 months of age.

During the investigation, interviews were conducted with the Licensee, an assistant, four daycare children, and five parents. The facility roster and children’s files were reviewed. The Licensee acknowledged that three daycare children engaged in inappropriate behavior in one of the facility’s bedrooms. The Licensee stated she was not present at the time, and the children were under the supervision of an assistant. Interviews revealed that on or about January 28, 2026, three children were left unsupervised in a daycare bedroom, during which inappropriate conduct occurred among the children. The assistant reported not witnessing the incident, as the bedroom door was closed while the children were inside.
