Regarding the allegation: Staff does not prevent daycare child from causing injury(ies) to multiple daycare children. Interviews with S1 indicate there were incidents of C6 causing injuries to multiple children. Although interviews with Children and Parents did not provide information to corroborate that a specific child caused injury to multiple children, LPA’s review of student behavioral reports and incident reports did indicate that C6 caused injury to multiple children in the daycare. Regarding the allegation: Staff did not prevent child from scratching another child. Although children and parents interviewed made no disclosures, record review indicate there were six scratching incidents and two biting incidents involving C6. Staff was aware that C6 exhibited aggressive behaviors; however, the facility was unable to prevent incidents from repeating. Interview with S1 confirmed that there were multiple scratching incidents by C6 towards other daycare children. Based on LPA’s interviews and record review, the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegations are found to be SUBSTANTIATED.
