On 02/09/2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Judy Laureano arrived at the above mentioned facility to investigate the referenced allegation. LPA met with Facility Director Danielle Williams. LPA conducted a tour of the facility and observed 32 children, 6 staff members, and Director/Owner D. Williams providing care and supervision.
