On 06/03/21, at 11:00AM, LPA, Luigi Gargaro, conducted an unannounced complaint visit to the facility today to deliver the findings for the above allegations. Analyst met with director, Kelly Parry, for the delivery of the findings.

During the course of the investigation, interviews were conducted with the facility director and staff and day care parents. Facility documentation, in the form of classroom sign in and sign out sheets, was also obtained and reviewed by analyst. Based on all the information gathered, it was determined that on multiple occasions in the month of April, the facility operated out of ratio with staff supervising more than the allowed ratio of infants per regulation.

It was also found that on multiple occasions in the month of April, the licensee had children from the toddler option program commingled with children from the infant program during morning drop off times until they were moved to their own classroom later in the morning.
