complaint·April 29, 2021

On 04/29/2021 Licensing Program Analysts (LPA) Jabari Wilson and Jaylena Miller conducted an unannounced subsequent complaint investigation at the facility. LPAs met with Director Ingrid Escalante and Owner Anju Khemani and explained the purpose of today’s inspection. The finding for the above allegation was delivered during the visit. During the investigation the department completed a physical plant inspection, reviewed facility records, and conducted interviews. LPAs interviews with staff and children determined there was not enough evidence to support that staff used excessive form of punishment. LPAs conducted an interview with RP who indicated his child was very upset and crying, his opinion was that he was “punished for nothing." Based on the interviews and information obtained throughout the investigation, the allegation is unsubstantiated. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED. The director was provided a copy of this report and appeal rights, and the signature on this form acknowledges receipts of these rights. An exit interview was conducted with director and Notice of Site visit was provided and posted on the wall.
