On March 4, 2025, at 9:15 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Gigi conducted an unannounced Annual Random inspection at the above Family Childcare Home (FCCH). LPA met with Licensee, Sara Torres and assistants, Jose Torres and Carmella Torres. LPA discussed the purpose of the inspection. FCCH is providing care for children aged 0 to 12 years old and operates on Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

During the inspection, LPA and Licensee toured the inside and outside of the home. The day care operates in the living room, family room, dining, and fenced backyard. LPA observed 6 children in care. The required licensing forms are posted in the prominent location. LPA also observed age-appropriate toys and equipment inside the home and in the outdoor area. For outdoor activities, the daycare has a designated play area enclosed by a wood fence which separates it from the personal-use backyard. A baby gate is installed at the kitchen’s entry to restrict access. Knives and cleaning materials are stored inaccessible to the children in care. The bathroom for children’s use is free of toxins.

LPA reviewed the facility file and found that the Pediatric CPR and First Aid certificate expires on 7/2026 while Mandated Reporter Training Certificate expires on 4/9/2026. LPA reminded Licensee that it is their responsibility to renew the certificates every two years. The regulation fire extinguisher was purchased on 8/6/2024.
