On Wednesday, May 6, 2026, at 3:10pm, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Giovanni Cristales conducted an unannounced inspection to conclude a complaint investigation. LPA met with Director Alyse Sanders and advised the purpose of the inspection. Upon arrival, LPA toured the facility and observed 1 preschool classroom which is divided in half (Tigers & Bears), with 26 children and three (3) preschool teachers present. The facility is also licensed for the Infant program (364843655) and school age (364843657). The facility was found to be within ratio.

Community Care Licensing (CCL) received the complaint on 3/11/26. Throughout the course of the investigation, LPA conducted two inspections at the facility. During the initial inspection on 3/20/26, LPA conducted and completed interviews with facility staff and director. During the visit, LPA physically collected diaper logs from 3/2/2026 – 3/20/26. During the tour of the inspection, LPA requested the A.C. units to be turned on because of another complaint received and were observed to be in operable condition. Parent interviews were conducted on another date.
