inappropriately touched C1’s private area and asked Cl to touch their private area.

The interview conducted with licensee revealed that C1 attended the child care and A1 would assist licensee when licensee was busy.

Based upon interviews with pertinent parties, the Department has determined the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the allegations are found to be SUBSTANTIATED. See LIC 9099D (page 3) for deficiency cited per California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12.

Enhanced Civil Penalties (ECP's) of $2000.00 are being assessed by the Department for violations surrounding the substantiated sexual abuse allegation. The ECPs were discussed with the Licensee during the inspection and Licensee was advised that an invoice will be forthcoming in the mail and will be due upon receipt. The Licensee was advised to not send payment until such invoice is received by the Department.

An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report was reviewed with and provided to Sanna Leghari, along with appeal rights.
