Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Randy Derraco conducted an unannounced complaint inspection to the above mentioned facility on 11/02/23. LPA arrived at the facility at 9:45 AM and was met by Director Claudia Ceballos, who guided analyst on a tour of the facility. During the tour, LPA observed 27 children in care and 9 adults caring for the children. LPA observed the facility to be clean and free of defects. The purpose of this visit is to deliver complaint findings.

During the course of the investigation, LPA conducted interviews, reviewed records and made observations. Interviews that were conducted did not corroborate the allegation that an infant sustained mulitple injuries while in care. Individuals interviewed state that marks on children's bodies are documented on the Procare application however it is common that documenation is not updated because of how busy it gets in the classroom. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.
