On May 27th, 2026 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Mandie Goodwin met with owner Krystal Barlatt for the purpose of continuing a complaint investigation and delivering findings. Upon arrival LPA observed 7 infant children supervised by 3 staff members.

During the course of the investigation LPA made observations, collected documentation, and conducted interviews. LPA reviewed children's files and interviewed staff and clients regarding injuries and supervision. Through interviews LPA learned that when injuries occur parents are notified by paper record and the Brightwheel app. If a face or head injury occurs staff also text a picture of the injury. LPA observed injury reports in a sample of children's files that document when the injury occurred and when the guardian was notified. For supervision interviews stated that staff keep their eyes on the children and communicate with each other if they have to turn away. One client stated that when they drop off and pick up everyone is there and watching their child. An interview additionally stated that they have been informed of injuries in a timely manner.

LPA made observations during lunch time and observed children were served a meal of chicken breast, rice, and watermelon. Interviews conducted stated there were no concerns with the food service provided by the center. LPA reviewed the admission agreement and parent handbook which state that breakfast, lunch, and snack are provided.

Although the allegation may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated. No title 22 deficiencies are cited. Exit interview was conducted with owner Krystal Barlatt and Notice of Site Visit was provided.
