On 10/14/2025, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Shane Loftus made an unannounced inspection to deliver the finding regarding an investigation of the above-mentioned allegation. LPA met with Cecilia Guzman, Licensee of the Family Child Care Home (FCCH) and explained the purpose of the inspection. LPA, in the company of the Licensee, toured the interior and exterior of the FCCH. LPA observed 8 children and an assistant providing care and supervision.

The investigation included two unannounced inspections, LPA's observations, record reviews, and interviews from a random sampling of former and current parents of children in care. Interviews, record reviews, and LPA's observations did not corroborate the allegation noted above. Specifically, the investigation did not yield enough evidence to prove that an injury sustained by C1 happened while in care at the FCCH.
