On the date and time listed above, a case management visit is being conducted in response to the receipt of an unusual incident report (UIR) from the facility. The UIR was received by the licensing agency on 07/13/22. It indicated that children touched each other inappropriately outdoors on the playground in a hidden area.

A prior visit was conducted on 7/22/22 and on that visit, LPA reviewed records, obtained photos and conducted interviews. During today’s visit additional interviews were conducted.

LPA interviewed 3 staff and the Director. Staff interviews reported teachers are required to be mobile during outside play and there are no hidden areas on any of the playgrounds. Staff interviews also reported due to young age, children sometimes hug each other when saying hello or good bye but not in an inappropriate (sexual) manner. Staff stated children are redirected if they try to kiss someone and that children have stated kissing is for 'mommies and daddies'. Staff stated they teach personal space boundaries including following best practices to encourage social distancing due to COVID. Staff stated facility policy requires the Director to follow up and discuss with parents concerns of any children engaging in personal boundary or aggressive behaviors.


Director interview stated facility self reported due to Parents reporting C2 touched C1 outside in a hidden area after parents noticed a rash by C1's mouth and asked C1 are you kissing your friends again. Director stated C1 does try to kiss others sometimes but is redirected
