      OCCL Standards Complaint (Substantiated)

      “The Office of Child Care Licensing received a complaint on March 14, 2025, regarding lack of supervision, hazardous materials in the children s reach, and vaping. This complaint is substantiated for lack of supervision and hazardous materials in the children s reach because Staff #1 admitted the pen must have fallen from their pocket and was picked up by Child #1 unnoticed by the staff. There is no evidence to substantiate the allegation of vaping because staff did not indicate they were vaping in the facility and the staff handbook prohibits vaping.”
