Based on investigative interviews with License and staff, and LPA’s document review, NO information was disclosed that the Licensee was not in compliance with Title 22 Regulations of the Operation of a Family Child Care Home. In LPA Clayton interviews with staff, it was reported that the licensee is present in the home and record review shows that Licensee has hired staff to ensure that children in care are supervised at all times, therefore, the allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED, meaning although the allegations may have happened or are valid, the preponderance of the evidence standard has not been met.


Exit interview was conducted with Licensee Jeanne and a copy of the report was provided with a Notice of Site.
