32 | During the course of investigation, LPA toured that facility, reviewed facility’s Parent Handbook and reviewed records including incident reports and behavior reports. LPA conducted interviews with reporting party, 4 staff members, 4 children, and 4 parents. LPA conducted observations and reviewed records.
LPA interviewed 4 staff members. 4 out of 4 staff members stated they have not witnessed staff not providing adequate supervision to children in care. Staff #1 (S1) stated, staff walk around, and are never in one spot, staff each have 12 kids in their group, staff plan activities for their groups to keep them engaged. Staff remind children to follow the rules. Every morning staff go over the rules, for inside and outside. Staff remind children to use their words and keep their hands to themselves. Staff #2 (S2) stated, staff walk around and separate themselves from one another to make sure all areas of the playground is covered and staff can see all the children. The Director stated, inside the classroom, staff make sure eyes are on the children, for example if a child or children need the bathroom staff will walk over and supervise the bathroom area. Staff are engaging with the children as they plan activities throughout the week. During outside play staff have zoning areas, they are supervising high risk areas for example, the climber ladder and structure. Staff provide activities outdoors for children and provide balls, bikes and caterpillar climber to keep children engaged.
LPA Duron interviewed 4 children. The 4 children interviewed made no disclosures regarding the above allegation.
LPA Duron interviewed 4 parents. All interviewed parents stated they did not have any concerns with the facility.
Based on the information gathered from LPAs’ interviews, observation and record review there is insufficient evidence to corroborate the allegation: Staff did not provide adequate supervision to children in care. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the allegation did or did not occur in the day care facility, therefore the allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED.
An exit interview was completed. The report was reviewed and discussed. Appeal Rights were provided. The facility representative was provided with a copy of their appeal rights and their signature on this form acknowledges receipt of these rights. All appeals must be in writing and received by the Licensing office within 15 business days.
