On 1/24/2022, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Gigi Reyes conducted an unannounced Case Management inspection. Prior to inspection, LPA asked pre screening questions related to COVID 19, Licensee's responses indicate there was no COVID exposure on site. LPA met with Licensee and explained the nature of the inspection. There were 17 children present during the inspection.

In the course of an investigation, it was ascertained that an incident of inappropriate interaction among day care children occurred at the Child Care Center (CCC) on March 23, 2021.

The CCC did not notify Community Care Licensing of the aforementioned incident within 24 hours upon the occurrence of the incident. Director Julie Soto stated that initially there was no incident to report because day care children stated they were just being playful and did not do anything.

Futher, CCC did not notify parents of the incident after it occurred. Parent contacted Director to inquire about the incident who according to parent Director forgot to mention about it due to a busy pick up time situation.

During today's inspection, deficiencies were cited under CCR Title 22 Division 12 on LIC 809 D

A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.

Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the Director, Julie Soto
