On 07/26/2023, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Candis Rodriguez conducted an unannounced case management inspection at facility regarding an incident that occurred on 07/12/2023. LPA met with Site Supervisor (SS) Ana Gutierrez, explained purpose of inspection, toured facility, and took a census.

On 07/12/2023, Child #1 exited Classroom #1 alone and was standing between Classroom #1 and Classroom #4, when a parent and Aide #1 saw Child #1 and immediately returned Child #1 to their classroom. LPA interviewed Teacher #1 who was present in Classroom #1 at time of incident. It was estimated Child #1 was alone for at least 30 seconds, up to two minutes based on prior interview with Director Rosalva Banuelos. Child #1 was unharmed and parents were notified.

Director and SS stated facility ordered safety gates to place at the entrance into the classroom to ensure this does not happen again. Facility staff also received a training on safety and zoning in the classroom to maintain full visibility of all children in the classroom at all times.

LPA observed the facility has fencing on the perimeter, as well as individual areas within the perimeter are fenced as well. LPA observed the fencing to be within regulation standards, with the exception of the fence right next to Classroom #4, which has a gap wide enough that a small child may be able to fit through. LPA advised facility to add another post to the gap which will ensure no one can fit through it.

Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined Child #1 was left without visual supervision which is a violation of regulations. (Continued on LIC 809-C)
