*This is an amended version of an original report dated 9/6/24.*
On 9/6/2024 at 10:35AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Christine Jung, conducted an unannounced case management-deficiency inspection in response to an incident that was self-reported to the Department. LPA met with Director, Julie Everest, and was led on a tour of the facility. There were 33 children and 8 staff members present. Hours of operation are Monday through Friday 7:00am to 6:00pm.

Director stated that on 9/5/2024, Staff 1 (S1) and Staff 2 (S2) were lining up with their class on the outdoor play yard to return to their classroom. S1 and S2 were counting the number of children and noticed that one child was not present. S1 went into the classroom to look for C1 but did not see them. S1 looked in the classroom restroom, but did not see C1. S1 looked through the windows leading into the office and saw C1 through the windows being walked to the facility from the parking lot by Adult 1 (A1) who is not a member of facility staff. S1 stated they composed themselves and walked out to retrieve C1. S1 stated they do not recall A1 making any statements. S1 stated they did not converse with A1, instead was focused on C1.

Director stated they were completing the Unusual Incident Report and would submit the written report to the Department by end of business day 9/6/2024. The facility director reported the incident to the Department in a timely manner. Based on the information obtained and interviews conducted, one Type A citation for Absence of Supervision is being cited on the LIC809D.

LPA informed Director, Julie Everest, that this report dated 9/6/2024 documents 1 Type A citation which shall be posted for 30 consecutive days as there is immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of children in care. Also, LPA informed Director to provide a copy of this licensing report dated 9/6/2024 that documents any Type A citation to parents/guardians of all children currently enrolled by the next business day or the next day the children are in care, and to any newly enrolled parents/guardians for 12 months from the date of this report.
