Incident investigation·September 3, 2025

On 09/03/2025, Licensing Program Analyst Katy Velazquez (LPA) conducted a Case Management inspection. LPA arrived at the Center and was met by Director Mallory Fox (D1). LPA disclosed the purpose of the inspection and was granted entrance. Site Supervisor Kim Ramm (D2) arrived shortly after LPA. LPA toured the facility and observed 12 school aged children being supervised by 2 staff members. LPA determined, through accessing Guardian, that all required adults were background cleared and associated to the license. The facility self reported an unusual incident which occurred on 08/29/2025. A child, C1, was left alone in a classroom for approximately 30 minutes; the child was found sleeping by a staff member. As a result, a Type A deficiency was cited for the absence of supervision and a civil penalty was assessed. D2 acknowledges, that FOR TYPE A DEFICIENCIES ONLY upon receipt, licensee shall post LIC 9099-D with Type A deficiencies for 30 days and provide copies of this licensing report to parents/guardians of children in care at the facility and to parents/guardians of children newly enrolled at the facility during the next 12 months. LIC 9224 must be signed by parents/guardians and kept with the children's forms as a receipt whenever any Type A documents are provided by the Licensee. An exit interview was conducted, and the report was reviewed with Site Supervisor Ramm. LPA provided Licensee Appeal Rights to D2. A Notice of Site visit was posted by LPA and must remain posted on, or immediately adjacent to, the interior side of the main door for 30 days. Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.
