Regarding allegation: Provider did not pick up day care child in a timely manner. During the initial inspection dated 9/6/23, LPA used Language Links to conduct interview with Licensee and attempted to interview 2 children including C1, but both children refused to talk to LPA. Staff #1 (S1) stated C1 was picked up about 14 minutes late on 8/23/23 and 10 minutes late on 9/5/23 because C1\342\200\231s parent called S1 to pick up C1 after school ended. LPA Duron interviewed 3 parents. All interviewed parents stated they did not have any concern with facility. Regarding allegation: Provider did not properly restrain day care child in vehicle. During the staff interview, S1 and S2 stated they have car seats and booster seats for the children they pick up from the elementary school . S1 and S2 also stated they make sure the children wear seat belt when traveling in vehicles. Both staff S1 and S2 denied that they did not properly restrain day care child in vehicle. During the inspection dated 9/6/23 and 10/24/23, LPA Duron observed 1 car seat and 2 booster seats in the facility. Based on the information gathered from LPAs\342\200\231 interviews, observation, and reviewing records, there is insufficient evidence to corroborate the allegations of provider did not properly restrain day care child in vehicle and provider did not pick up day care child in a timely manner. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the allegations did or did not occur in the day care facility, therefore the allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED. An exit interview was completed. The report was reviewed and discussed. Appeal Rights were provided. The facility representative was provided a copy of their appeal rights and their signature on this form acknowledges receipt of these rights. All appeals must be in writing and received by the Licensing office within 15 business days.
