25 | On 3/20/25, 9:30 AM Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Shane Loftus and Cynthia Alvarez conducted an unannounced Required 3 Year inspection of the above-mentioned Family Child Care Home (FCCH). LPAs met with Maria Trejo, Licensee of the FCCH and explained the nature and purpose of the inspection. LPAs note two (2) children are present during the inspection.
LPAs, in the company of the Licensee, toured the exterior and interior of the FCCH. The home consists of four (4) bedrooms and two (2) bathrooms. The home’s living room, kitchen, dining area, bathroom, and outdoor yard are used for child care services, while the bedrooms, and garage are excluded from services. LPAs note that all bedroom doors were closed and have safety doorknobs making all bedrooms inaccessible to children in care.
The FCCH is orderly and has ventilation to afford for the children’s comfort and safety. Licensee reported that medication in the FCCH is stored in the Licensee's master bedroom. Sharps are stored in an elevated cabinet in the kitchen. Cleaning compounds are stored and secured under the kitchen sink. All areas were observed to be inaccessible to children in care. Toys, furniture and equipment observed in the FCCH are age appropriate. LPAs note the FCCH has a fireplace that is blocked by a large shelf.
Required forms are posted on the FCCH living room wall. The FCCH has smoke and carbon monoxide detectors which were tested at 9:43 AM and found to be operable. The FCCH has a regulation fire extinguisher which was serviced 02/11/25. LPAs reminded the Licensee to either service or purchase a regulation fire extinguisher annually.
