INVESTIGATION FINDINGS: On 05/05/25 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) C.C., made a subsequent complaint investigation inspection, for the purpose of delivering complaint findings and met with Licensee, Gloria Linnear. It has been alleged that licensee does not maintain a sanitary facility and that the facility smells malodorous. Inspections were previously conducted on 05/28/25 to initiate and conduct the investigation. Based on observations made by LPAs C.C. and E.H. on 05/28/25, the LPAs observed the playroom carpet smelling of urine, which substantiated the allegation of the facility smelling malodourous. LPAs also observed a pet training pad in the corner of the playroom and pet feces in the playroom carpet area where training pad was located. This is an area that is on limits and accessible to the daycare children. This presents a health and safety hazard to the children in care. Furthermore, licensee stated that sometimes at night her two puppies have access to the playroom when kids are not present. Licensee stated that she typically cleans and sanitizes the play room before children arrive, however licensee reported that she woke up late on 05/28/25 and she was unable to clean and sanitize before the arrival of the children.
