On 07/25/2023 at 3:15 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Michelle Hood conducted an unannounced complaint inspection for the purpose of delivering the findings regarding the above allegation. During today's inspection, the LPA did not interview daycare children due to three children were napping and one was non-verbal.

During the investigation, the LPA interviewed the licensee, reporting party, witnesses, and daycare parents. During the licensees interview, the licensee admitted placing an iPad and blanket in the pack-n-play to help calm the infant. The licensee stated she removed the blanket and iPAD after taking the picture of the infant asleep to the parent.

The preponderance of evidence standard has been met; therefore, the allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. One type A violation California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division 12 & Chapter 3), is being cited on the attached LIC 9099-D.
