13 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), N. Cunningham conducted an unannounced visit to the facility to deliver complaint allegation findings. It was alleged that the licensee speaks inappropriately to children, specifically, the licensee yells at children, uses profane language, and is rude to children when they are hyper. On 08/18/22 at 5:10pm and 8/31/22 at 11:10am, LPA discussed the allegation with Licensee Anderson. On both dates, Licensee Anderson adamantly denied the allegation but did acknowledge she raises her voice if she needs to get a child’s attention or quickly point out a safety concern.
Through the course of the investigation, starting from 08/18/2022 through 10/06/2022, LPA conducted interviews on 8/31/22, 9/12/22, 9/26/22, 10/03/22, and 10/04/22. Seven witnesses reported that they always observed the licensee use appropriate tone and appropriate language when speaking with children in care. Two witnesses reported they often hear the licensee and multiple children interacting outside and noted that the communication is appropriate and the children appear happy. Two witnesses reported that they have observed children become excited when the learn they get to go to the licensee’s home. Child 1 stated that if children get in trouble they clip down.
