25 | On 10/29/2020, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Ariel Cazares met with Licensee Lydia Nandakumara of the licensed facility via FaceTime.
The purpose of the visit was to provide technical assistance to the facility that has been granted a waiver to temporarily operate a toddler and school-age component under the preschool license. This waiver will be used to due to the spread of COVID-19 in Southern/Northern California.
The child care will be operated Monday through Friday, 7am to 6pm and under the waiver will serve children starting at 18 months and K to 8th grade, with a combined total capacity of 24 under the waiver. Should the facility need to increase capacity beyond what has been approved in the waiver or any changes to the conditions of the waiver occur, Sierra Madre United Methodist Church shall notify the Monterey Park Child Care Regional Office.
At 10:45am, Licensee Lydia Nandakumaran guided LPA tour of the facility. The temporary school-age component consists of two rooms and a separate, private restroom. The toddler component will have a separate classroom. Check-in will take place at the entrance of the facility, outside. If child/ren become ill during the course of the day, they will be placed in the isolation area known as the staff lounge (Sierra House) where a restroom is also located. The toddler component has their own playground. School-age children will share the preschool yard on a staggered schedule. |
