An unannounced in-person Case Management-Deficiencies inspection was conducted on this date by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Emiko Bell in order to cite for deficiencies observed during an inspection. Licensee Elaine Davis arrived at 10:00 am.

Upon LPA's arrival, LPA was greeted by staff Destiny Carcoba, who permitted LPA to enter the Center and who guided LPA to Lead Teacher Antoinette Jordan.

LPA and staff wore face coverings the duration of the inspection as a precautionary measure against COVID-19. The COVID screening questions were posed and all were responded to with "No."

A citation is being issued for children not wearing face coverings, as mandated by the LA County Department of Public Health while children are indoors; they are not required outdoors or while children are napping or eating or drinking. .

From 09:15-09:25, Lead Teacher Antoinette Jordan.then guided LPA on a tour to take census. There were eight children in the multi-purpose room with one staff and on the playground, there were six children with Rebecca Meza. As Rebecca Meza does not have teacher qualifications, staff-child ratio was not met.
