On 09/10/2024, Licensing Program Analyst Katy Velazquez (LPA) conducted an unannounced field visit to deliver the findings for the above allegation. LPA arrived at the facility and was met a few minutes later by Director Maria Guzman (D1). LPA disclosed the purpose of the inspection and was granted entrance. LPA toured the facility and observed 7 school aged children being supervised by 2 staff members. LPA determined, through accessing Guardian, that all required adults were background cleared and associated to the license.
Throughout the course of the investigation, LPA conducted physical plant inspections, on-site observations, interviews, reviewed and collected documentation. LPA reviewed the facility’s file. It was alleged that staff do not communicate with day care children's responsible party. Interviews with staff and parents did not reveal corroboration for the allegation. A disagreement between a staff member and an enrolled parent was revealed throughout the course of the investigation.
