Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Elise Read and Michelle Palacio conducted an unannounced inspection with the Licensee. The home was toured and inspected to ensure an environment safe for the care and supervision of children. Present were the Licensee, adult son Omar Jama, and 6 day care children. Licensee's son assisted with translation to licensee's primary language, Somali. The carbon monoxide detector (located in the hallway) and smoke detector (located in the living room) meet requirements and are operational. The fire extinguisher (located in the kitchen) meets regulation and is operational. There were accessible hazards such as carpet cleaner and dish detergent accessible under the kitchen sink. There were also accessible perfumes and Tylenol accessible to children in bedroom #1. There are no bodies of water on the property. Licensee states that there are no weapons in the home.

A review of staff records on this date indicates that all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse clearances or exemptions. First Aid and CPR certification expire on 02/2021. Licensee does not meet immunization requirements per SB 792, as she did not have her immunization records available for review during inspection. Licensee is exempt from Mandated Reporter Training AB 1207 due to primary language being Somali. Children’s records were not complete, as the forms for children #1-#6 were not complete or signed by the parent. Licensee maintains a current roster. Licensee is not conducting fire drills per regulation.

Licensee has provided adequate space for the children to eat, sleep and play within the home. The licensee has sufficient toys and equipment available. Areas used for child care include living room, kitchen, bedroom #1, bedroom #5 and hallway bathroom. Off limits areas include entire upstairs, bedrooms #2, #3, #4, and #6, which are all inaccessible through use of locked doors. The home has a backyard available for outdoor activities. The staircase is barricaded and the fireplace is screened.
