25 | On 8/15/19 at 2:20pm, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Loretta Dyson arrived at the home for an unannounced random inspection. LPA met with Rosa Lopez. There were 14 children present, and the licensee's fingerprint cleared assistant A. Alegria was also present.
LPA conducted a tour of the areas of the home used for the child care. The home is a single story home with a storage room under the home. The home is neat and clean with sufficient heating and ventilation for the safety and comfort of children in care. The on limit areas include the living room, dining room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms on the left side, the child care room, the 2 rooms located next to the child care room, the bathroom in the child care room, and the bathroom in the backyard. All other areas of the home are off limit areas are made inaccessible by closed and/or locked doors and visual supervision. The first bedroom on the left or the living room, away from other children in care, will be used for isolation. The fenced backyard will be used for outdoor play, and LPA observed that it is free from defects or dangerous conditions. LPA observed an ample supply of toys and activities, which are age appropriate and appear to be in good condition, available for children. The heater vents and fireplace are blocked to prevent access by children. The home has a fully charged 3A40BC fire extinguisher, working smoke detector, working carbon monoxide detector, fully stocked first aid kit and telephone. Per the licensee, there are no firearms in the home.
LPA reviewed children's files. The facility roster was reviewed, and a copy was obtained.
Licensee was encouraged to frequently visit our website at www.ccld.ca.gov for licensing regulations and updates, and to sign up to receive quarterly updates by email by sending a request to ChildCareAdvocatesProgram@dss.ca.gov. The Licensee was given a copy of A Child Care Provider's Guide to Safe Sleep pamphlet and LPA discussed safe sleep practices and policy. |
