On 11/07/2019 at 2:40pm, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Destinee Hogue arrived at the facility to conduct a case management inspection in response to the receipt of an unusual incident report (UIR). The UIR was received by the Riverside Child Care Regional Office on 10/10/2019 via fax. The UIR states during a preschool field trip, a child in care was bitten by a miniature horse which required medical attention. The following was discussed during this inspection:

Director Emelin Tahhan arranged for a field trip to the Greenspot Farm (10133 Ward Way, Mentone, Ca 92359) on 10/04/2019. The purpose of the field was for children to learn about farm animals, participate in tractor ride and walk through the pumpkin patch. It is the facilities policy that all children attending a field trip must be accompanied by an adult. Facility does not provide transportation for field trips. Parents are required to meet staff at the designated field trip location and are responsible to take children home after the field trip.

During the field trip 10/04/2019, the children had left from getting a sample of honey from the honey farm and walked toward the petting zoo area. A tour guide was walking with the group and providing the group with an explanation of the miniature horses. The tour guide was holding the horse by a leash and giving an explanation behind fencing. The fencing stands approximately three to four feet in height. Staff explained that the fencing was tall enough for daycare children to lean over and sit their arms on the top of fencing. As the tour guide was giving an explanation, the horse moved their head over the fence attempting to reach over to a child. The tour guide noticed the horse’s movement and brushed her hand in front of the horse’s mouth. When the tour guide moved their hand down, the horse turned back around and grabbed onto the child’s right shoulder blade. Staff heard the child scream three to four times, but the horse did not let go of the child. When parties realized the horse was not letting go of the child, the child’s authorized representative placed their hand in the horse’s mouth for the horse to release the child. The horse let go of the child when the child’s representative placed their hand in the horse’s mouth. The child was carried to the front office and provided an ice pack. According to staff, there was no broken skin or blood from the horse’s bite, but there was a light
