On 6/16/2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Evelyn Garcia met with Marisol Almanzar for the purpose to deliver findings in regard to the complaint investigation and the allegations above. Upon arrival, LPA conducted a tour of the facility and verified a census of 3 children and 2 adults providing care and supervision. All adults are fingerprinted and cleared.

During the investigation, LPA Garcia conducted interviews with complaint-relevant parties and gathered additional complaint-relevant evidence. Information obtained through interviews and observations revealed that the licensee was not properly securing hazardous materials. Specifically, antifreeze, and cleaning compounds (Great Value- multi purpose disinfectant) were observed by LPA Garcia to be accessible to children in a high-traffic area of the facility. Although the materials were not located in an area designated for children's play, they remained accessible and were not stored in a manner that prevented children's access.
