*This is an amended report* Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Elise Read conducted an unannounced complaint inspection. LPA met with licensee to investigate the above allegation. Present at the facility were licensee, licensee's mother Maria Hernandez de Felix and 6 day care children. Facility is within licensed ratio and capacity.
During today's inspection, LPA conducted interview with licensee and reviewed child records. LPA obtained updated facility roster. LPA and licensee reviewed capacity and ratio regulations.
Throughout the investigation, LPA spoke with reporting party and received documentation from outside agency to support the allegation. During interview with licensee, licensee admitted that she had operated out of ratio, as she misunderstood the regulation. It was brought to her attention by another agency, and licensee corrected her mistake immediately.
The preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12 or Health and Safety Code, are being cited on the attached LIC 9099D.
An exit interview was conducted with the licensee. The licensee was provided a copy of their appeal rights (LIC 9058) and their signature on this form acknowledges receipt of these rights. LPA provided notice of site visit and observed it being posted at the facility.
