On 09/22/2023 at 10:00 AM, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Tiffanie Diep and Elizabeth Santiago met with Director Delia Cortez for the purpose of an unannounced annual inspection, and Director guided LPAs on a tour of the facility. LPAs observed five staff supervising 15 children. Facility days and hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 6:30 AM to 4:00 PM. LPAs verified that annual fees are current.

All individuals subject to a criminal record review have obtained a criminal record clearance. Director was reminded that all adults 18 and over, including employees and volunteers, except as specified in Health and Safety Code section 1596.871, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a Child Care Center. A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day for a maximum of five days or, if the penalty is for a repeat violation, for a maximum of 30 days per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.

A health and safety inspection of the facility’s interior and exterior was conducted. LPAs reviewed the sign-in/out sheets and observed that children were properly signed in/out. LPAs observed the required postings. LPAs reviewed staffing ratios, first aid supplies, furniture, equipment, fire drills, and access to drinking water. LPAs verified that hazardous items (disinfectants, cleaning solutions, etc.) were inaccessible to children in care. LPAs observed both smoke and carbon monoxide detectors were functional. LPAs observed adequate age-appropriate toys and equipment available for children. Facility provides breakfast, snack, and lunch. The outdoor play area was inspected. LPAs observed the play structure was in good repair and was sufficiently cushioned by artificial grass.

For child care center licenses issued after July 1, 2022, the licensee shall test their water for lead within 180 days of licensure pursuant to Written Directives section 101700 (PIN 21-21.1-CCP).
