25 | On April 18th, 2022 at 8:20 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jo Ann Legaspi conducted an unannounced case management inspection to issue a citation on a violation observed during a complaint investigation. LPA advised Licensee Elvia Martinez of the inspection’s purpose and she granted LPA facility entry. Present in the home was only the Licensee, Staff Elena Aquirre, two (2) daycare toddlers and one (1) daycare school aged child. Language Link Operator 13629 provided Spanish translation services.
The facility is licensed for 14 children. On 03/18/2022, Licensee left Staff 1 alone with ten (10) children while the Licensee conducted child transportations. (See LIC 811 Confidential Names). During this time, Child 1 left the facility without any adult daycare supervision.
Based on conducted interviews, it has been determined that the Licensee did not ensure that her large family childcare home reverted to capacity requirements for a small family childcare home when she left S1 alone with the ten (10) children. This deficiency is being cited per the California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division 12 & Chapter 3), and described on the attached LIC 809D.
Upon receipt, the Licensee shall post and provide copies of this licensing report to parents/guardians of children in care at the facility and to parents/guardians of children newly enrolled at the facility during the next 12 months. The Licensee shall also have parents complete and sign the Acknowledgement of Receipt of Licensing Report LIC 9224 (08/08); these signed forms will be made available to the Department upon request. LPA provided Licensee with a blank LIC 9224 form.
The Notice of Site Visit (LIC 9213) was provided to the Licensee, which is to be posted at the facility for 30 days. LPA observed form LIC 9213 posted. An exit interview was conducted with Licensee Elvia Martinez.
