On 04/20/2026 at 11:00 AM Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Mone Flores and Kareeca “Reeca” Sykes conducted an Unannounced Complaint Investigation at The Learning Experience. LPAs met with the Director, Nicole Neeley, and explained the purpose of today’s inspection. During the visit, LPAs observed 63 preschool children in care with 8 staff in 6 classrooms. The Director stated there are 96 children enrolled. Complainant alleges that staff are not meeting day care child's needs.

During the course of the investigation, LPAs reviewed records, toured the facility and conducted interviews. LPAs confirmed through interviews that a staff member did not meet C1’s needs by not comforting them when they woke up crying visibly upset during nap time. Based on the evidence obtained and interviews conducted throughout the investigation, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation(s) is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Divison 12 Chapter 1), are being cited on the attached LIC 9099D.
