On 08/28/2026, Licensee Program Analysts (LPA) Jaime Gonzales conducted an unannounced complaint investigation. Upon arrival, LPA toured the facility and took a census. LPA observed 12 preschoolers and one staff in Room 4. LPA met with Site Director, Fernanda Vargas and Licensee,Gireesh M. and informed them of the purpose of today’s visit which was to deliver complaint investigation findings.

Based on information obtained during the investigation, there was insufficient evidence to determine staff yelled at a parent in the presence of day care children. Interviews revealed that S1 was calm, did not raise their voice, walked away, and children were not in area at the time. Therefore, based on the information gathered there was not sufficent evidence to confirm the allegation did or did not occur.
