On 08/17/2023 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Lucero conducted an unannounced Case Management to ensure that the facility is staying within compliance of Title 22 regulations.
LPA met with Director Melinda Marchese. LPA took census in the infant classrooms. There were 11 infants with 4 staff members in the infant class. The facility was operating within its licensed capacity and within compliance of staff-to-child ratios. An on-site Facility Personnel Report Summary review showed that all facility residents, staff, or other individuals who require background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions.
During the inspection of the indoor activity space, LPA did not observe any items which could pose a danger to children (poisons, detergents, cleaning compounds, medications or hazardous items). All storage containers for solid waste, including moveable bins, have tight fitting covers that are kept on, and are in good repair. Bottles, dishes and containers of food brought by the infant’s authorized representative are labeled with the infant’s name and current date. The facility has age appropriate furniture and equipment including, but no limited to, cribs or mats, changing table and feeding chairs. A baby walker was not observed during today’s visit. Floors, equipment, and furniture were clean and were observed to be in good repair and free of sharp edges.
LPA conducted a facility inspection of the napping area. LPA observed staff were implementing safe sleep regulations, there were no items inside the cribs only a crib sheet. LPA reviewed the napping log.
Staff files were reviewed for staff present during the facility inspection on this date, 5 out of 5 staff files were reviewed. Health screening and immunizations as required were reviewed. Beginning September 1, 2016, Health and Safety (H&S) 1597.622 states, a person shall not be employed or volunteer at a childcare center if he or she has not been immunized against influenza, pertussis, and measles. Beginning March 31, 2018, H&S Code 1596.8662 requires all directors and employees to complete mandated reporting training, and to renew the training every two years.
