25 | An annual required inspection was made to the facility by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Y. Yang. The facility file was reviewed prior to this inspection. A review of the personnel report on 03/03/22 indicates that all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions. The center director was reminded that all adults 18 and over, including employees and volunteers, 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 up to $500.00 maximum per day/per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.
The LPA met with the facility's licensee Debbie Deas today. The facility’s operating hours are 06:30am-06:00pm, Monday – Friday. This is a combination center with a preschool license. The facility was toured inside and outside and the floor and yard plan submitted by the licensee were verified. The items which could pose a danger to children (such as detergents, cleaning compounds and medications) were observed to be inaccessible to children. Poisons are not stored on the premises. The facility was free of flies, insects and rodents. The toys, floors, desks and other equipment and surfaces were clean, toxic free, safe and in good condition. There is drinking water available to children both indoors in the classrooms and outdoors on the playground. The children’s bathrooms were in safe and sanitary condition. A current snack menu was posted by the facility's main entrance. Food prep areas are clean. Food is properly stored and free of contamination. Garbage cans in the classroom containing solid waste were in good repair with tight fitting lids. The playground was free of hazards.

The sign in/out sheet was reviewed and was in compliance with regulations. Ten children’s records were reviewed at 12:07pm, and contained identification forms with authorized representative information, as well as medical assessments. Four staff record were reviewed at 11:25am. Staff S1-S4 were missing California Child Abuse Mandated Reporter Training certificates.
