At 8:50 a.m. on Wednesday, November 2nd, 2022, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Karyn Guerra met with Director, Michelle Ingram, for the purpose of an unannounced complaint inspection. It was alleged that uncleared adult(s) have access to day care children. A census was conducted upon arrival and 7 infants were observed with 3 staff. Staff Laura Scott and Child Care Careers substitute staff, Wijdan Alsubaihawi, did not have a criminal record clearance associated to the facility. This poses an immediate risk to the health and safety of children in care. Civil penalties were assessed. The Director stated that they recently started employment at the facility and did not know that the substitute was not associated to the facility. LPA did not observe either staff associated to the facility roster. Transfer request documents for both individuals were completed during inspection. LPA advised director to always get documentation of clearances. The preponderance of evidence standard has been met, and the allegation is substantiated.
