A complaint inspection was initiated on August 7, 2023 and concluded on August 8, 2023. A complaint was received in the Office of Child Care Health & Safety (Valley) on July 20, 2023 regarding supervision of children, programs and staff training. Interviews were conducted on 08/07/2023. The inspector reviewed compliance in the areas of training, staffing and supervision, and programming. A total of one child record was reviewed and two staff were interviewed.
