A subsequent complaint investigation visit was conducted today by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Selena Mariani who met with Center Director (CD), Alicia Wright for the purpose of delivering complaint investigation findings for the above allegation. LPA previously conducted inspections on 12/19/2024 and 12/23/24 to initiate the investigation discuss the allegation, conduct interview(s), make observations, watch video recording, and request documents. It is alleged staff handles children in a rough manner, specifically that, Staff 1 (S1) put Child 1 (C1’s) shoes on in a rough manner, pulled arm hard to check diaper and pushed C1 to the floor.

During the investigation, LPA conducted interviews with the CD, three Staff (S1–S3) and one adult (A1) from 12/19/2024 through 02/14/2025. CD admitted, there was not malicious intent, but staff could have handled child more softly when assisting C1. CD further stated the incident is being investigating per company policy. S1 denied handling Child 1 (C1) in a rough manner. S2, S3 and A1 interviews didn’t reveal further evidence concerning the allegation.

The LPA was provided video evidence in which LPA observed S1 sit next to C1 on the carpet and put C1’s shoes on quickly. S1 pulled C1 up by the arm turning C1 around which appeared to be a jerky and forced movement. S1 looked in C1’s diaper to see if it needed to be changed and afterwards pushed C1 on the bottom as C1 was walking away resulting in C1 falling to their knees. C1 stayed on their knees playing with a toy in front of S1. CD's interview and LPA’s observation corroborates the incident as alleged.

Based on LPAs observation and interviews which were conducted and record review(s), the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met, therefore, the allegation is determined to be substantiated. California Code of Regulations, Title 22, is being cited on the attached LIC 9099-D. Appeal rights were provided. An exit interview was conducted, and this report was read and discussed with the facility’s Center Director, Alicia Wright.
The Notice of Site Visit shall be posted for 30 days.

Amended Report from 2/14/25 to add additional information. Original signature on file.
