Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Tricia Danielson arrived unannounced to the facility to conclude an investigation into the allegation listed about. LPA met with Director Cheryl Farmer and explained the purpose of the visit. At the time of today's visit, the preschool had 9 children enrolled and 9 children were present.
Regarding the allegation "Personal Rights/Staff Yelling at Children in care", it was alleged that on August 7, 2026, Director Farmer was observed to be yelling at children in care while outside on or near the playground area. During an interview with Farmer , she shared that she did yell in an effort to get the children's attention to complete transition from the playground back to the classrooms and that the scenario had been chaotic at the time. Farmer also acknowledged she had been confronted by a passerby as a result.
Based on interviews conducted, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be substantiated. California Code of Regulations, are being cited on the attached LIC 9099-D. An exit interview was conducted, and this report was reviewed with and provided to Director Farmer. Appeal Rights were also discussed and provided. An LIC 9213- Notice of Site Visit was also issued and must remain posted near the main entrance for 30 days. Non-compliance with posting will result in a $100 fine. This report must be accessible to the public for three years.
