Daycare parents interviewed expressed satisfaction with the care the licensee provides and had no concerns. Daycare children interviewed stated they have not received inappropriate forms of discipline by licensee or staff, nor have they observed anyone else receiving inappropriate forms of discipline. During interview with LPA, C1 also denied the allegation.

Due to conflicting information obtained throughout the course of the investigation and no other witnesses to the alleged incidents, LPA was unable to determine whether or not the allegation occurred. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation(s) did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.

Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with licensee, Angelica Villasenor. A copy of this report, along with Appeal Rights (LIC9058 03/22), was provided. A Notice of Site Visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. LPA observed that the notice of site visit was posted during the inspection. Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.
