OCCL Standards Complaint (Substantiated)

“On February 11, 2026, the Office of Child Care Licensing (OCCL) received a complaint regarding health exclusions, not providing truthful information, and caring for children in unapproved space. An investigation was conducted on February 18, 2026. This complaint is substantiated for caring for children in an unapproved space, because according to Administrator #1, usually two children are brought up to the front of the center near the offices for the last 10 minutes of every day to await parent pickup. There is no evidence to substantiate the allegation the center did not provide truthful information on the daily logs. According to Staff #1, who was the staff person in the infant room on February 9, 2026, Child #1 arrived with a stuffy nose, was coughing and sneezing, but Parent #1 did not write this on the form at drop off, therefore, Staff #1 wrote it. LS #1 also confirmed it was written on the attendance record under the health check section. There is no evidence to substantiate the allegation the center did not follow their health exclusion policies, because according to Staff #1, Child #1 s vomit on February 9, 2026, was not related to illness but rather their diagnosed reflux. Staff #1 stated Child #1 frequently spits up large quantities of their bottles. According to messages reviewed between Parent #1 and Staff #1, Parent #1 did not administer the proper dosage of medication to Child #1 the weekend before the incident, causing increased spit up.”
