On February 15, 2024., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Van conducted an unannounced Plan of Correction (POC) inspection. One of the staff members, Jin Song (Annie), greeted LPA. The purpose of the inspection was explained, and the staff granted LPA entry to the Center. Jin Song informed LPA that a group of twelve children went to the park under the Director's supervision. Jin Song told LPA that she was not the person in charge. At the Center, three teachers were supervising 13 children, and two more children were dropped off, bringing the total to 27. During the inspection, Sally Chen, one of the teachers present, took four children from the Center to an undisclosed location, which Jin Song refused to reveal to LPA. The Director, LayLay Eung, and two teachers returned with 12 children during the visit.

During the visit, it was noticed that the three teachers present at the Center had confirmed that they were not assigned as the person in charge or appointed as a substitute childcare center Director. As a result, no one was in charge of the Center while the Center Director was absent. Although the three teachers were not familiar with the Center's operations, they were left alone at the Center.

On the January 10, 2024, annual inspection, the Center was found to have multiple deficiencies. These included water fixtures that were not tested for lead after the due date of January 1, 2023, and three teachers were missing immunization records. During today's inspection, LPA thoroughly reviewed all personnel records, including those of the three teachers who were missing immunization records.
