On 05/12/2023, Licensing Program Analysts (LPA) Candis Rodriguez and Paul Garcia conducted an unannounced complaint inspection at facility. LPAs met with Licensee Maribel Sanchez, explained purpose of inspection, toured facility and took a census.

Upon arrival to the facility, LPA's observed 4 children in the dining room. LPA asked Licensee how many children were in care that day, and Licensee said, "six." LPA's began asking Licensee about inspecting all of the rooms in the home due to the allegations in the complaint. Licensee went to her bedroom and brought out two other children. At the same time, another child was dropped off at the front door. The total count of children was 9 children. LPA's reviewed children's files and determined there were 7 infants age 24 months and younger, and two children over the age of 2 present in the facility. Licensee admitted she was operating out of ratio and had too many infants. Licensee began contacting parents to have three infants picked up to bring her back in ratio.

LPA's inspected the home and observed the master bedroom was being used for sleeping infants, but that bedroom is not currently approved for day care use. The living room, dining room, kitchen and bathroom were currently on file as licensed for use. LPA's observed hazardous items in the master bedroom that were accessible to children such as shaving razors, perfumes, hairpray, Fluocinonide Topical Solution that states "keep out of reach of children", food on the master bathroom floor, Jack Daniels brand alcohol. LPA also observed blankets and other items in the play yards. LPA discussed safe sleep regulations with Licensee.

Licensee stated she has been operating out of ratio or over capacity for about three months. Licensee stated there is no excuse, and she is aware of operating out of ratio being against regulations. Licensee stated she needs to hire someone to help her more with children's paperwork as well. Licensee stated her current assistant, which is her daughter, helps her with the children but not the paperwork. (Continued on LIC 812-C)
