Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Reiko Jones-Modeste conducted an unannounced complaint TELE_INSPECTION via FACETIME due to SOE. LPA met with Licensee Selina Lay who guided LPA on a tour of the facility. Ten children were present during today's inspection as well as two Licensee Assistants. At 2:30pm LPA observed two sleeping infants in portable playards located in the converted garage adjacent to an attached bedroom that serves as a daycare room. LPA conducted interviews with S1, S2 and S3 who confirmed children sleep and nap in the converted garage. S1 also confirmed an inspection report was not available. LPA confirmed with Licensee that children in care are not allowed to sleep in the garage without a valid inspection report and instructed Licensee to remove the sleeping infants. S1 stated a formal request has been submitted to convert the garage into a junior dwelling.

Based on LPA observations and interviews conducted, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegations are found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, Title 22 102416.3(a)(1) are being cited on the attached LIC9099D.

Substantiated
