On Tuesday, February 4, 2025, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Amanda Sutter met with Director Debbie Jen regarding the above allegation. Upon arrival, LPA observed 9 preschool children supervised by 1 staff.

It was alleged that a child eloped from the facility due to lack of supervision. LPA conducted interviews while at the facility. An Observer stated that at the time of the incident, they saw Child 1 (C1) outside, and went outside to get C1, but by the time Observer got to the child, they saw a staff person with C1. Observer stated that because of the angle, they could not confirm whether or not staff person was with C1 the whole time. Director stated that C1 did elope from the classroom during a transition period, and that Staff 2 (S2) observed this and brought the child back to the classroom. Director stated that to her knowledge, C1 did not make it outside.
