Based on information provided including the limited partial video camera footage on licensee's cell phone, interviews obtained by relevant parties, and disclosures made by licensee the Allegation #1 is rendered Unfounded. Although, day-care child sustained injury while in care, Licensee was providing supervision and was in close proximity to child and provided attention when child fell while in care. A finding that the complaint is unfounded means that the allegation is false, could not have happened, and/or is without a reasonable basis.

An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report, appeal rights and notice of Site Visit and dismissal letter was provided to the licensee on this date.
