This is an AMENDED Report delivered on December 17, 2024.
On November 6, 2024, at 1:22 PM., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Sherlynn Banas conducted an unannounced complaint inspection for the complaint received on October 3, 2024, to deliver a finding regarding the above allegation. LPA Banas met with co-owner, Peter Cohen.
Based upon observations, information gathered from documentation, interviews of parents and staff, it was determined that S1 did not handle C1 roughly but communicated with C1 in a disrespectful manner. The preponderance of evidence has been met; therefore, the allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. See LIC 9099D for Type A deficiency cited.
LPA Banas informed the co-owner, Peter Cohen, that this report dated 11/6/24 documents one Type A citation, which shall be posted for 30 consecutive days as there is an immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of children in care.
Also, LPA Banas informed Peter Cohen, to provide a copy of this licensing report dated 11/6/2024, which documents one Type A citation, to parents/guardians of all children currently enrolled by the next business day or the next day the children are in care, and to parents of newly enrolled children for 12 months from the date of this report. A signed Acknowledgement of Receipt of Licensing Report (LIC 9224), or other written statement, must be placed in the child's file for verification.
Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the co-owner, Peter Cohen. A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.
