13 | On February 13, 2026, at 8:35 am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Simerjit Kaur arrived to the facility unannounced to conduct an investigation into the above allegation. LPA met with and Director Nathaniel Jimenez. LPA toured the facility for health and safety inspection. Present during the inspection were 73 preschool age children, 5 toddlers and 18 staff members.
During the course of the investigation, LPA conducted interviews with staff, parents, and record review.
It has been disclosed that there have been two (2) biting incidents involving same children. Staff turned to attend another child and C1 bite C2 during the play time. Although biting at this age may occur, once a child bites another child, staff shall provide visual supervision at all times to ensures children's personal rights are not violated by other children in care. A type B deficiency will be cited as staff have been working with C1 and the biting has since subsided. The preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED.
Deficiency cited on 9099D. Exit interview was conducted with Director Nathaniel Jimenez and appeal rights provided. Notice of site visit is provided. |
