On or about February 20, 2025, it was alleged the Licensee did not prevent inappropriate behavior between day care children. It was noted Child #1 was involved in inappropriate behavior with Child #2 about a year prior to the allegation being reported to Licensing. Child #2 is no longer enrolled at the facility. LPAs interviewed the Licensee who stated she spoke to the Authorized Representative(s) of the child(ren) regarding the alleged incident. Licensee stated Child #1 admitted to being involved in inappropriate behavior with Child #2. Additionally, the Licensee provided video documentation to the Department which confirmed the allegation to be true.

Based on Licensee’s own admission, documentation provided to the Department, interviews and record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation(s) is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division 12 & Chapter 1), are being cited on the attached LIC9099D.

See LIC809-D for cited deficiencies.

LPAs Eric Ramos and Perla Ordones informed Licensee Malik Dean that this report dated March 28, 2025, documents one Type A citation which shall be posted for 30 consecutive days as there is an immediate risk(s) to the health, safety, or personal rights of children in care. LPA Eric Ramos and Perla Ordones informed the Licensee Malik Dean to provide a copy of this licensing report dated March 28, 2025, that documents any Type A citation(s) to parents/guardians of all children currently enrolled by the next business day or the next day the children are in care, and to any newly enrolled parents/guardians for 12 months from the date of this report. A signed Acknowledgement of Receipt of Licensing Report (LIC 9224), or other written statement, must be placed in the child's file for verification.
