On 2/18/25, at 2:30 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Julieta Abrego conducted an inspection to conclude the complaint investigation regarding the above allegation.

Interviews were conducted with staff, children in care and day-care parents. Interviews were conducted with staff, children in care and day-care parents. During today's inspection, the LPA conducted children's interviews. Due to conflicting information obtained throughout the course of the investigation, LPA was unable to determine whether or not the allegation occurred. Interviews conducted could not cooroborate the allegation through interviews conducted. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore the allegations are unsubstantiated. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the licensee. A copy of this report, along with Appeal Rights (LIC9058 03/22), were provided. A Notice of Site Visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.
