Licensee and or other adult in the home hit day care child
It was alleged an adult in the home hit a daycare child. Interviews with pertinent parties denied hitting or witnessing a daycare child get hit. It was stated if a child is misbehaving, they are asked to sit down and cool down for a couple of minutes and talked to about their behavior. However, after additional interviews there was conflicting information and although attempts were made, due to age and/or verbal skills, not all pertinent parties were able to be interviewed.

Licensee and or other adult in the home pulled day care child's hair
It was alleged an adult in the home pulled a daycare child’s hair. Interviews with pertinent parties denied pulling a daycare child’s hair or witnessing a daycare child getting their hair pulled. However, there was conflicting information as it was stated there was one incident where it was alleged a child's hair was pulled but no corroborating information was obtained. Although attempts were made, due to age and/or verbal skills, not all pertinent parties were able to be interviewed.

Based on information obtained during this investigation through interviews conducted, the review of pertinent documentation, and after receiving conflicting information, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the allegation is unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the allegation occurred.

An exit interview was conducted with the Licensee Monica Quijada, Appeal Rights were discussed and issued, a copy of this report was provided, and a Notice of Site visit was issued.

The Notice of Site Visit (LIC 9213) shall be posted where the parent/guardian of children enter and exit the facility. The Notice of Site Visit (LIC 9213) must remain posted for 30 days during the hours of operation after each site visit by a licensing representative. Failure to maintain posting as required will result in a civil penalty of $100.00.

A copy of this report must be made available for the next three years.
