On May 14, 2026, Licensing Program Analysts (LPA) Lea Habtom met with licensee Anabel Gonzalez to close a complaint. Upon arrival, LPA observed 7 children which consists of 2 infants and 5 preschool children being supervised by the licensee and 2 staff members. All staff present during today’s inspection have fingerprint clearances and associations.

Child was injured in care due to inadequate supervision

During the investigation, LPA Lea Habtom toured the facility, conducted observation, and interviewed those pertinent to the investigation. It was alleged that a child was injured in care due to inadequate supervision. LPA interviewed staff and parents and discovered that there were multiple biting incidents. Interviews and documentation on the Brightwheel application, used to document incident reports, indicated that, in several incidents, the cameras did not capture the occurrence.
