On 10/17/2024, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Raymond Moorehead and Perla Ordones and Licensing Program Manager (LPM) Aaron Ross arrived at the facility for separate matters. Upon arrival, access was granted and a tour/census was taken.

LPAs have been made aware of several biting incidents pertaining to several different day care children. LPAs observed 15 incidents, in which a daycare child had bit other children. This occurred between June 2024 and August 2024.

Furthermore, the Licensing Agency received a Unusual Incident Report indicating that a child has bitten other daycare children a total of 9 times, since June of 2024.

In a effort to prevent further incidents, the facility provides children with teething toys. It has been stated that staff shadow children who tend to display biting tendencies, when possible.

Due to the high volume of incidents, this is a violation of Title 22 Regulations, Section 101223(a)(2), which states "The licensee shall ensure that each child is... accorded safe, healthful and comfortable accommodations, furnishings and equipment to meet his/her needs".

See LIC809-D for cited deficiency.

LPAs informed Assistant Director that this report dated on 10/17/2024 documents 1 Type A citation which shall be posted for 30 consecutive days as there is/are immediate risk(s) to the health, safety, or personal rights of children in care.

Continued on LIC 809-C.
