Confidential interviews and record review revealed C1 attended the FCC for one day, from approximately 8:15 am to 2:15 pm on December 12, 2022. Confidential interviews revealed C1 cried most of the day and did not want to eat or drink anything. Interviews revealed LIC and AT sat C1 with the other children in care and offered C1 breakfast and lunch. It was further revealed that C1 was distraught, crying, did not want to eat anything while at the FCC and fell asleep for a period of time. It was unclear if a snack was offered to C1 as LIC first said a snack was not offered to C1 or any other children and then said snack was offered to all the children that day. Confidential interviews revealed that LIC and AT also tried providing C1 with sips of water from a paper cup, however it was unknown how much water C1 actually drank. Interviews also revealed that during the time C1 attended, LIC was in contact with C1’s parent and informed them that C1 was crying and did not want to eat. Based on confidential interviews conducted during the investigation, the allegation that staff did not meet the day care child's needs may have occurred, however is not supported or proven by evidence. Therefore, the above allegation is unsubstantiated. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report and appeal rights were discussed and provided to Licensee Leticia Bee. A notice of site visit was also provided and must remain posted for 30 days.
