During the investigation, interviews were conducted with daycare children, clients, and other adults familiar with the facility. Interviews corroborated the licensee\342\200\231s statements. The LPA was unable to obtain corroborating information that the licensee slapped child C1\342\200\231s hand. The individuals interviewed had positive comments regarding the licensee and the facility and stated that they have never observed the licensee roughly handling a child. Based on available information, 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 determined to be unsubstantiated at this time. There were no Title 22 deficiencies cited. This report was reviewed and discussed with the facility\342\200\231s licensee, Iuliia "Julia" Bogdanova. Appeal rights were provided. Notice of Site Visit shall be posted for 30 days from today's visit.
