CCC HAS AN ATTESTATION LETTER. LEAD WATER TESTING IS NOT REQUIRED.
Assembly Bill (AB) 2370, Chapter 676, Statutes of 2018, requires all licensed Child Care Centers (CCCs) constructed before January 1, 2010, to test their water (used for
drinking and food preparation) for lead contamination before January 1, 2023, and then every 5-years after the date of the first test.
For child care center licenses issued after July 1, 2022, the licensee shall test their water for lead within 180 days of licensure pursuant to Written Directives section 101700 (PIN 21-21.1-CCP).
LPA verified that the lead testing was completed in accordance to the Written Directives outlined in PIN 21-21.1-CCP.
LPAs verified that the attestation letter for lead water testing is valid and LPAs observed that the sinks have signs indicating not to use for drinking water.
According to Emma, the facility is using Bright Wheel Application for sign in/out. Facility has license and all other required documents posted and visible for the public. Facility has an emergency drill log and last drill was conducted on September 11, 2023. Per Emma, drills are done at least every 6 months and the school also rotates them between lock down/fire and earthquake drills.
The LPAs reviewed the facility records. LPAs reviewed 4 children's files during the visit. LPAs reviewed 3 staff files with qualifying requirements such as ECE Units, CPR and Mandated Reporter Training. Mandated reporter training are expired and needs to be renewed. The facility has a set learning curriculum and schedule posted in the classroom.
The Director was reminded that all adults 18 and over, including employees and volunteers, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption or transfer their existing clearance or exemption prior to initial presence in a Child Care Center.
A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day up to $500.00 maximum per day/per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.
