OCCL Standards Complaint (Substantiated)
“The Office of Child Care Licensing (OCCL) received a complaint on February 17, 2023, regarding the provider not being present and not providing the majority of the child care duties, not following requirements for a substitute, unapproved persons being present during child care hours, not following fingerprinting requirements for an adult volunteer, not notifying OCCL of a change in use of a substitute, and not having current court custody papers in a child s file. An investigation was conducted on February 24, 2023. The complaint is substantiated for not following the requirements for a substitute because Nadira Uppal stated she has left her emergency-use substitute to care for children, while she attended appointments. The complaint is substantiated for not having current custody papers in Child #1 s file because [name] admitted the need to ask Parent #1 for updated custody papers because she did not have a copy. There is no evidence to substantiate the complaint for the provider not being present and providing the majority of child care duties as [name] stated she only leaves occasionally for appointments. There is no evidence to substantiate the complaint for not following fingerprinting requirements because [name] s substitute has been fingerprinted and determined eligible. There is no evidence to substantiate the complaint for not notifying OCCL, because [name] is not changing her substitute to a non-emergency-use substitute and therefore does not require notification to OCCL. There is no evidence to substantiate the complaint for unapproved persons being present during child care hours as [name] denied this allegation and stated Person #1 was only present briefly on one morning.”
