13 | On 10/1/24, at 9:30 am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Gloria Gonzalez conducted a complaint inspection to deliver findings and met with Director, Ashley Enwia regarding the above allegation. LPA advised Director of the purpose of the inspection and conducted a tour of the facility. There were ten (10) daycare children and one (1) staff member present during the inspection. Director stated that the last break where children were present was on 6/10/24 through 7/12/24, being the last day on 7/12/24 and this component resumed back on 9/23/24.
On 8/1/24, Community Care Licensing (CCL) received a complaint alleging staff did not provide a comfortable environment for children in care. During the course of the investigation interviews were conducted with Director and Assistant Director.
Reporting Party did not give an exact date of when they observed the school was hot and not a comfortable environment for children.
Director, Ashley Enwia and Assistant Director, Emily Gomez stated that the AC was not working properly due to a part that needed to be replaced. Director stated that the temperature was higher than normal, but did not exceed 80 degrees. Director, several staff, and several daycare parents stated that fans and portable AC's were brought in. Director submitted proof of portable ACs installed on 7/24/24. LPA observed portable AC's on the 8/7/24 inspection date. Per records review and observations, the AC units are working properly as of 8/5/24.
Based on LPA's observations, interviews conducted, and records reviewed and due to no corroborating evidence regarding the allegation and although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur. Therefore the above allegation is found to be unsubstantiated.
