On 5/30/24, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Saraliz Velando conducted an unannounced visit for the purpose of delivering findings for complaint received on 3/15/24. The LPA met with Owner, Rafat (Rocky) Ilaian and toured the facility. There were 16 preschool children present and 2 staff at the facility. Based on the information obtained from observation, file reviews, parent and staff interviews, it was determined that unqualified staff were providing care to da ycare children. LPA observed the unqualified staff caring for children while visiting the facility for a different reason. LPA reviewed staff files and did not observe any proof of qualifications for staff that was presented as fully qualified teachers. The preponderance of the evidence has been met and therefore, the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. Type A Violation was cited.
