AMENDED REPORT: LPA removed secondary allegation as it was addressed on a 04/03/2026 report.
On March, 19, 2026 at 10:00 a.m., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Peter Bishop arrived at the above facility to conduct an unannounced complaint inspection that was received in our office on March 16, 2026. LPA announced the purpose of inspection and was granted entry to facility by Director Toni Barnes. LPA met with Director Toni Barnes and toured the facility. There were 29 children present and 54 children enrolled.

During the course of this investigation LPA Bishop conducted interviews and referenced the Unusual Incident Report submitted to the Department on March 11, 2026. The report confirmed that the child was left unsupervised on the playground. There were 3 other Teacher interviews conducted and the information gathered from interviews disclosed corroborating information in regard to the above allegation. During the Interview with Director Toni Barnes confirmed that there was a child left on the playground alone without supervision. The child was left without direct supervision or staff. An exact amount of time could not be specified. Based on interviews approximately 2-5 minutes. This poses an immediate risk to the health and safety of children in care.
