LPA interviewed staff at the facility. Staff interviewed stated they hold the infant in their arms while feeding them. Staff also stated they either sit on the floor or on the rocking chair while feeding infants. LPA reviewed staff files. Based on records reviewed, it was determined that the teachers in the facility are qualified to supervise children in the infant room, and aides are qualified to assist in the infant room with the supervision of a qualified teacher. None of the parents interviewed disclosed any information that could support the allegations. Based on interviews conducted and records reviewed, the preponderance of evidence standard has not been met. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore the allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED. An exit interview was conducted with licensee, Vandna Desai. The Notice of Site Visit was posted during the visit. The director was informed that the Notice of Site Visit must be posted for 30 consecutive days. Failure to post will result in civil penalties of $100.
