On 08/22/25 at 11am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Anna Chan conducted a visit to the facility for the purpose of initiating a complaint that was received by the Regional Office. However, the facility was closed, and the place was locked and empty. There was an eviction notice posted on the front entrance door. No staff or children were present; therefore, no inspection took place.

LPA contacted and met with the facility representative Samantha De Silva (Licensee). LPA and licensee met at the pasking lot outside the facility and informed about the allegation.

The Department received a complaint on 8/13/25 alleging staff did not prevent children in care from bullying another child in care.

Samantha De Silva stated they lost control of the property, and the landlord did not renew their lease; therefore, they are permanently closing the facility effective immediately. Licensee will surrendered license to LPA at a later date as the license was still inside the locked premises. However, a copy of the license was provided to LPA.

Children, staff, and parents were not available for interviews.

Due to no staff, children or parents available for interviews, and facility closure, the preponderance of evidence standard has not been met. 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.

An exit interview was conducted, and report was reviewed and discussed with Licensee Samantha De Silva. Appeal rights were provided.

Report and appeal rights were emailed to Licensee, Samantha De Silva.
