complaint·September 8, 2025

On September 8, 2025., Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Naves and Van conducted an unannounced inspection to finalize this complaint and deliver the findings to the Center. LPAs met with the Director, Nahid Taleboo. The purpose of the inspection was explained, and entry to the Center was granted. 4 staff members, including the director, supervised 9 children today. The teachers-to-children ratio was met. As part of the investigation, interviews were conducted, observations were made, and all relevant documents were collected and reviewed. Based on observations conducted on September 2 and today, LPAs did not observe any sunshade covers or tarps exhibiting sagging that was low enough to potentially pose a risk to children in care. Furthermore, the LPAs did not observe any ropes used to secure the sunshades/tarps that were dangling, which would allow children the opportunity to tug or pull on them. The Department has investigated the allegations mentioned above. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur. Therefore, the allegations are Unsubstantiated. A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. An exit inspection was conducted with the Director Nahid Taleboo.
