On 12/20/2024 at 11:10 am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Michelle Hood conducted an unannounced complaint inspection regarding the above allegation, LPA met with the Director Cathy Edwards. LPA Hood explained the purpose of the inspection was to interview daycare child & deliver the complaint findings. LPA observed six children with one staff on the playground.

During the investigation, LPAs Hood and Anderson interviewed the director, the reporting party (RP), daycare parents, and daycare staff. LPAs reviewed photos, sign-in/out sheets, text messages, call logs, and one ouch report. During an interview with a daycare parent it was disclosed a child sustained scratches, a bite mark, and lost a tooth while at the facility. The LPAs observed pictures of a child with a scratch above the eye and elbow. The other daycare parents interviewed stated there’s no issues or concerns with the care and supervision provided by the staff at the facility. The director and staff member interviewed were able to explain how a child in care sustained an injury above the eye and elbow; however, the staff denied a child lost a tooth while at the facility.
