On September 15, 2022 Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Lea Habtom and Amanda Blesi met with acting director Dawnika Gallegos to close the complaint for the above allegation. Upon arrival, LPA observed 5 infants being supervised by one staff and one substitute. During the visit one parent picked up their child and substitute left for the day leaving one staff with 4 infants.

During the investigation, LPA Habtom toured the facility, conducted observation, and interviewed those pertinent to the investigation. It was alleged that the staff were operating out of ratio. From interviews, child roster and staff attendance LPA L. Habtom was unable to gather corroborating information to validate that staff were operating out of ratio therefore the allegation is found to be UNSUBSTANTAITED. Although it may or may have not happened, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the alleged violations occurred.

Unsubstantiated
