On 8/24/21 @ 11:50 a.m. Licensing Program Analyst, Joelle Redding, made an unannounced visit to deliver findings on the above referenced allegation. Based upon observation, interviews and documentation review, the facility was having parents of children from the preschool program drop off their children in the infant room in the morning until the next teachers arrived. School age children are part of the preschool program since this facility is allowed 12 school age children under their preschool license. Commingling them in the intant room in the morning exceeds the limitation of the infant license which allows for up to 20 children, ages 2 to 24 months. The preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be Substantiated. A Type B deficiency will be cited under California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division 12 & Chapter #1) on the accompanying LIC 9099D.

Appeal Rights were discussed and provided. Signature at the bottom of this report confirms receipt. Notice of Site Visit was posted and will remain posted for 30 days.

The infant room opens at 7 a.m. so they felt they could drop their children there. Since that time, Director has reminded parents of the preschool hours and will have them wait
