A complaint inspection was conducted on May 8, 2024 from 1:10 P.M.-3:00 P.M. A complaint was received in the Office of Child Care Health & Safety (Valley) on May 2, 2024 regarding behavior guidance, supervision, and injury reports. The inspector interviewed three staff, reviewed three staff records, two children records, and seven injury/incident reports.
The information gathered does not support the allegation, therefore the complaint is determined to be "not valid". There was information gathered during the inspection, not complaint related, that determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the program.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Licensing Inspector at 540-430-9257.
