Staff left child in a soiled diaper, Director states children are changed as needed. Parents provide the diapers. There are diapers kept at the center. Interviews did not provide evidence to show children were being left in a soiled diaper. Diapers for children in care not changed timely could not be verified. During observations on 11/10/25 and 12/1/25 and 1/12/26, LPA saw no signs of children diapers being full and staff appeared to adequately change diapers in a timely manner during each inspection completed. Interviews provided contradictory statements.

Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violations occurred, therefore the above allegations are found to be Unsubstantiated. Exit interview conducted with Amita Perusinghe. Notice of Site Visit was provided and LPA informed Director it shall remain posted for 30 days.
