Incident investigation·November 13, 2025

On November 13, 2025 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Giovani Gonzalez conducted a Case Management - Incident inspection at the above-mentioned Child Care Center (CCC). LPA met with Director Leone Paul and informed them the purpose of the inspection is to follow up on a self reported incident where Child 1, was left unattended in a classroom as the staff were transitioning children outside. At the time of the inspection 54 children were present. On 11/7/25, the CCC self reported an incident where Staff 1 and Staff 2 were transitioning 23 children from the classroom to the play ground. Per the report, Staff 1 and Staff 2 completed name to face check, confirming all children were brought outside prior to closing the classroom door. Staff 3 arrived and upon opening the classroom door observed Child 1 inside the classroom unattended. LPA in the company of the director toured the area where the incident occurred. LPA observed the door closes on its own and director informed LPA the door is unlocked when children are in the play ground. LPA reviewed statement from Staff 1, stating they did confirm child was brought outside and was not forgotten inside but that child was left unattended in the classroom. Further LPA reviewed name to face log that also confirms child was brought outside before the door was closed. Director informed LPA staff are required to wait for a manager prior to transitioning children for additional help but staff went ahead and transitioned without the additional support.
