degrees. The teachers were in the school and was unaware that Child (PR) had gotten out, they had the door locked, it is unknown how Child (PR) was able to get out. Child (PR) was returned back to the school. The lock sits pretty low with a deadbolt right above, that is easily in reach of the children. This happened right before the parents' pickup time. This is the first time known for this to have happened. A complaint inspection was conducted on 1/17/2025 and a statement from the Director (N. Damiani)was received. Per the director, the incident happened when they were putting the children to sleep. The 2y/o group is put to nap at 12PM. At 1PM, the 3y/o and 4y/o group are taken to the same room to nap. The child in question, P.R., is with the 3y/o group. At 1pm, he layed down on his mat/cot and she believed that he was asleep. She sat in the middle of the room on her laptop while the children napped. A little while later, doesn't know what time, the police came to knock om the door and asked her if she lost a child. She stated that she didn't but then the police showed her a picture of the boy. She thought that was a mistake and went to see if P.R. was paying on his cot. He was not on his cot and that is when she realized he was in fact missing. The police officer asked her to come with him to retrieve the child because he didn't want to get inside the police car. She went with him and they brought the child back to the school. They reviewed the cameras and the camera didn't pick up the child as he was not within camera view. The director stated that the door that led to outside where the child was sleeping was unlocked. It seems that the child managed to unlock the door and leave the school on his own. The parent was contacted but she didn't answer the phone. At pickup time, the mom was seen at pickup line and was asked to get off to speak. The parent mentioned that the child does that at home too and sometimes walks out into the garage. A walkthrough of the facility was done to check the room that the child was in. The child was sleeping in a small room that appeared to be the school lobby. The director was sitting at a table in the adjacent room, leaving about 4 children sleeping in this small room. This complaint is substantiated and a non-compliance and notice of violation is being issued. Provider was notified that a probationary license will be issued
