25 | On 03/05/2024 at 11:05am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Selina Siao and Investigator Ernestine Bellucco conducted an unannounced case management inspection to follow up on a self reported incident that happened on 2/12/2024. The incident involved two school age children with one of the child who may have inappropriate touched the other day care child in the facility's dining room area. Licensee reported the incident to the departing by phone on 2/20/2024 and submitted the unusual incident report to the department on 2/21/2024. Licensee failed to report the unusual incident to the department within the required 24 hours as she found out about the incident on 2/13/2024.
Upon arrival, Licensee was at the facility with four day care children including one older infant and three toddler age children who were playing at the facility's fenced backyard. Interviews were conducted in Spanish by Investigator Ernestine Bellucco as licensee's primary language is Spanish. During the inspection licensee's son who lives next door and is the owner of the home came to the facility and licensee called her daughter Leonor Hernandez to supervise the children during the inspection. Licensee's husband Arturo Nunez arrived home with the dog during the inspection.
During today's inspection, licensee has requested to add an additional enclosed area that has two windows and a sliding door for the children to do art work and activities that is located outside at the backyard. LPA inspected the extra detached room that has an air conditioner today and the area appears to be safe for the children to do art and reading activities. The detached area should not be use for napping and visual supervision is required when children are in the enclosed area. An updated facility sketch shall be submitted to LPA along with pictures of the room set up prior to using the area. See LIC809D for type B citation issue today. |
