Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

On 9/3/2025 Licensing Program Analyst met with center director Hailey Daughrity and center owner Melissa Cady to discuss the above complaint allegation. Upon arrival there are 35 preschool age children present along with 7 staff. Today an interview was conducted with the center's director and owner and relevant documents were received. Per owner and director, due to treatments performed around the perimeter of the facility for outside pests, they have recently observed mice inside of the facility. Measures have been taken to rectify the problem by hiring a company to seal vents, the foundation, remove debris from gutters etc. along with regular preventative treatment thereafter. Based on LPAs observations and interviews which were conducted and record reviews, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 1 & Chapter 12, are being cited on the attached LIC. 9099D. An exit interview was conducted with center owner Melissa Cady.
