- 422: Day Care In New York And How I
- Currently there are only about twelve or so day-care investigators on Long Island, whose responsibilities are to inspect and monitor all 1,659 providers caring for 35,319 preschool children in Nassau and Suffolk Counties.

If any of the aforementioned were to occur a manager could request replacement for these employees, whether they will be granted or not is another story.
