On 5/6/25, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Saraliz Velando and Hanna Lucas made an unannounced visit to deliver findings for the complaint received on 2/25/25 regarding the above allegation. The LPAs toured the facility with the Director, Jessica Williams. There were 61 preschool children present and 12 staff at the facility today.

Based on file review, staff interviews, and parent interviews there was not enough evidence to support the allegation that staff use inappropriate discipline. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not enough evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred, therefore the above allegation is found to be UNSUBSTANTIATED.

No deficiencies were cited today. The exit interview was conducted with the Center Director, Jessica Williams. Appeal Rights and a copy of the licensing report was provided. A notice of site visit was posted and must remain for 30 days.
