On Wednesday, September 25, 2024, at approximately 12:45 PM Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Josiah Gathing met with Licensee Danelle Ingalls, for the purpose of a complaint investigation and to deliver findings. It was alleged that staff did not provide drinking water to children in care and staff kept children outdoors in extreme heat for an extended period of time. Throughout the course of the investigation, LPA conducted interviews, reviewed documents, and made observations. LPA observed a water jug and individual cups with childrens names available at all times during outdoor play throughout the investigation. Parent and child interviews confirmed that water is provided outdoors. According to staff interviews, water is always provided to children outdoors, and children would be kept indoors in excessive heat.
Although the alleged violations may have happened or are valid, the preponderance of evidence standard has not been met to fully prove or disprove that they did or did not occur, therefore, they are unsubstantiated. An exit interview was conducted and a notice of site visit provided. Notice of site visit shall remain posted for 30 days.
