On the date and time listed above, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Giselle Carbullido conducted a subsequent complaint investigation to deliver final findings. An initial visit was conducted on 05/01/2026 at which time LPA reviewed records and conducted collateral visits on 05/11/26 and 05/21/26. LPA met with facility representative; Natasha Abeyguneratne- Director; toured the facility and took a census.
During the investigation, LPA reviewed records and interviewed pertinent parties, including facility staff and children.
It was alleged staff did not prevent a day care child from inappropriately touching another child. Staff interviews reported that facility staff are mobile and spread apart for supervision, including direct supervision for any toileting activity. Interviews also noted unobstructed views for both indoor and outdoor areas. Staff denied observing any children touching others inappropriately or any children reporting being inappropriately touched.
LPA toured the facility and observed two rooms with open layout and unobstructed view and that playground fences are chain link allowing for supervision of all play areas.
