On 03/10/2026 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Lisa Clayton conducted a Case Management inspection at A Bright Beginning, to follow up on an Unusual Incident reported to the department by telephone on 02/25/2026. LPA met with Director Ericka Andrews. Upon arrival, there were 26 children being supervised and cared for appropriately by 3 fingerprint cleared staff. Description of the incident : RP stated that on 02/19/2026 Two children were on carpet crawling with toys child #1 trying to take the toy from child #2. Child #1 pulled the shirt of child #2 shirt and pushed child #2 down to the floor and child #2 hit his mouth and chipped his tooth. Based on the information obtained through interviews it has been determined that the supervising teacher did not see the incident as it happened but became aware of the incident when C2 started crying, and later watched the video to see what actually occurred. In addition, the incident was not reported to the department in the time indicated in Title 22 regulations for reporting Unusual Incidents. Two (2) Type B Citations are being cited today for Reporting Requirement and Personal Rights. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report and Appeal Rights were provided to Director Ericka Andrews. LPA Clayton posted a Notice of site visit, which is to remain posted for 30 days.
