Type (as published): OCCL Standards Complaint
The state's summary (as published)

An investigation was initiated on December 16, 2025, and concluded on December 18, 2025. There is no evidence to substantiate this complaint for concerns of inability to maintain proper indoor temperature due to the heating system not functioning, based on classroom temperature observed and staff interviews conducted. Administrator #1 and nine staff members were interviewed. Administrator #1 and seven staff members stated they have no concerns with the temperatures in the classroom, and there are supplemental wall-mounted heating units if needed. Two staff members stated they have concerns about the low temperatures in the morning and throughout the day, and wall-mounted heaters are not warming up the classrooms. Temperatures taken in classrooms during two visits were within the required range. An additional concern noted at the visit was one of the closing classrooms had 12 children present, with the youngest child being under one year old, with three staff members.

Completed October 28, 2022 · Result: Substantiated
Type (as published): OCCL Standards Complaint
The state's summary (as published)
The Office of Child Care Licensing received a complaint on October 21, 2022, regarding lack of supervision, staff shortage, and unqualified staff in classrooms. An investigation was conducted on October 21, 2022. This complaint is substantiated for lack of supervision because a child was able to exit the gymnasium side door unnoticed by staff, and was observed by a passerby in the parking lot next to a high-traffic road in front of the facility. There is no evidence to substantiate this complaint for insufficient staff because each classroom was in ratio and had additional staff throughout the day. This is no evidence to substantiate this complaint for unqualified staff in classrooms because it was observed and documented no unqualified staff were alone with children and all unqualified staff are currently enrolled in the CDA program.
