On Tuesday October 08, 2024, Licensing Program Analysts Stephanie Piring met with Assitant Director, Tiffany Deans, for the purpose of delivering findings pertaining to the above allegations. LPA observed a census of 16 preschool age children being supervised by 3 staff and 12 toddler age children being supervised by 3 staff. During today's visit, LPA made observations and interviewed children.

It was alleged staff had an inappropriate interaction with a child, and that a child was touched inappropriatly by another child at the facility. Throught out the course of the investigation, LPA observed care, conducted interviews with staff, authorized representatives, and children, and reviewed relevent documentation. Interviews with both staff and authorized representatives did not reveal concern with an inappropriate interaction between a staff member and a child. Interviews did not reveal any incidents where a child was touched inappropriatly by another child while at the facility. Although the allegation(s) may have happened, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the allegation; therefore, the allegation is unsubstantiated. Exit interview was conducted and report was reviewed with Facility Representative Tiffany Deans. Appeal rights were provided. Notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.
