Appeal from the Family Court, New York County (Michael Gage, J.).
There is no merit to respondent's argument that the record does not support Family Court's finding that he sexually abused his daughter. The child's detailed and descriptive testimony, aided by the use of dolls and pictures, was sufficiently corroborated by the expert testimony of the psychologist who had interviewed the child on four different occasions (see, Matter of Nicole V., 71 N.Y.2d 112, 118). A request for a second validator was properly denied as detrimental to the child (see, Matter of Jessica R., 78 N.Y.2d 1031).
