On December 12, 2023, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Stacey Williams arrived at the facility for the purpose of delivering complaint findings. LPA met with Facility Representative, Madhuri Mediboyana. LPA observed seven children supervised by two staff.

An investigation was conducted regarding the allegation listed above. It was alleged that the Licensee uses inappropriate discipline methods. The facility was toured, and interviews were conducted with the Reporting Party, Licensee, facility staff, daycare children and parents of children in care. The Licensee denied the allegation. Licensee reported that the discipline methods used in her program are appropriate. Licensee disclosed that she speaks to the children about their actions and uses verbal redirection if necessary and allows children to have time away from the group to calm themselves or meditate by the aquarium. Interviews with parents and children did not corroborate concerns regarding inappropriate care or discipline used in the facility.
