On November 17, 2023, at 8:30 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Diana Sanchez made an unannounced complaint inspection to deliver the complaint investigation findings for the above allegation. LPA met with director Mariela Arce and explained the purpose of today’s inspection. Current census is 11.

This agency has investigated the above listed allegation. During the investigation, LPA conducted facility inspections, interviews with facility staff, daycare children, daycare parents, and therapist. It was alleged a daycare child 1 (C1) was physically restrained by Staff 1 (S1). During interviews staff denied seeing S1 restraining C1. According to the facility staff, none of them were able to connect with C1 on a one on one basis, since C1 always wanted to be by her therapist’s side. Children and parents interviewed did not disclose any concerns or issues with the facility or staff.
