On May 5th, 2023, at 12:30 pm, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), David Nguyen met with Licensee, Vernette Brown, to deliver the findings of the complaint alleging licensee hit day care child with an object. LPA was granted for entry into the facility by Licensee. Purpose of the inspection was explained. During the investigation, LPAs, David Nguyen and Lauren Scott inspected the facility and interviewed the licensee. During the interviews, LPAs did not collect any evidence to support the allegation that licensee hit daycare child with an object. Based on interviews, it was found that licensee is not hitting daycare child with an object (hairbrush). Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur; therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. Copy of this report was reviewed and provided to the licensee. Notice of site visit is posted and shall remain posted for next 30 days.
