Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Aurelio Mendoza conducted an unannounced Required 3-Year Inspection for the facility’s infant license. Upon arrival, LPA met with Staff #1 and conducted a comprehensive tour of the facility, both indoors and outdoors. The facility provides infant daycare services Monday through Friday, from 6:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

All poisons are stored in locked areas, and none were observed during the inspection. Disinfectants, cleaning solutions, medications, and other hazardous materials were stored so as to be inaccessible to children. The premises have no swimming pool or other bodies of water. There are also no firearms or ammunition on site. While no in-ground pool is present, LPA discussed the new pool safety requirements under AB 2866, effective January 1, 2025, and informed Staff #1 about Provider Information Notice (PIN) 25-01-CCP, issued January 6, 2025, in case future installation of an in-ground pool is considered.

All furniture and equipment were in good repair and free of sharp, loose, or pointed parts. Playground equipment was in safe condition with no hazards noted. The outdoor activity space was well maintained, and areas around climbing structures and slides were cushioned to absorb falls. Toilets and handwashing stations were sanitary and in good working order. The facility is equipped with at least one functioning carbon monoxide detector. Floors were clean and safe, and all solid waste containers had tight-fitting lids and were in good condition.

Drinking water is available to children both indoors and outdoors. The facility uses a filtration system, with filters serviced annually by a water service company, per Staff #1. Teachers carry thermoses or water containers to fill as needed. Outdoors, children are provided disposable cups; indoors, they use facility-provided plastic cups. The facility provides breakfast, lunch, and snacks, with all food prepared on site. Menus are posted at least one week in advance in a location accessible to authorized representatives.

FACILITY EVALUATION REPORT California law requires a public report of each licensing visit/inspection. This report is a record for the facility and the licensing agency. This report is available for public review; therefore, care is taken not to disclose personal or confidential information. Inquiries concerning the location, maintenance, and contents of these reports may be directed to the Licensing Program Analyst or Regional Office whose address and telephone number are listed on the front of this form.

DEFICIENCIES A deficiency is an instance of noncompliance with licensing requirements, including applicable statutes, regulations, interim licensing standards, operating standards, and written directives. Applicants/ licensees must be notified in writing of all licensing deficiencies. Deficiencies are listed on the left side of this form, and the applicable licensing requirement upon which the deficiency is identified. There are two types of deficiencies:
  • Type A deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, if not corrected, have a direct and immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care.
  • Type B deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, without correction, could become a risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care, a recordkeeping violation that could impact the care of said persons and/or protection of their resources, or a violation that could impact those services required to meet the needs of persons in care.

PLANS OF CORRECTION (POCs) The licensing agency is required to establish a reasonable length of time to correct a deficiency. In order to set the time, the licensing agency must take into consideration the seriousness of the violation, the number of persons in care involved, and the availability of equipment and personnel necessary to correct the violation. Applicants/licensees are requested to provide a specific plan for each violation on the right side of the form across from each deficiency. The more specific the plan, the less chance exists for any misunderstanding in setting time limits and reviewing corrections. The applicant/licensee who encounters problems beyond their control in completing the corrections within the specified time frame may request and may be granted an extension of the correction due date by the licensing agency.

CORRECTION NOTIFICATION The applicant/licensee is responsible for completing all corrections and promptly notifying the licensing agency of corrections. Applicants/licensees are advised to keep a dated copy of any correspondence sent to the licensing agency concerning corrections, or if corrections are telephoned to the licensing agency, the date, person contacted, and information given.

CIVIL PENALTIES The licensing agency is required by law to issue a Penalty Notice, when applicable, to all facilities holding a license issued by the licensing agency, or subject to licensure, except Certified Family Homes, Resource Families, and Foster Family Homes, or any governmental entity.

PENALTY NOTICE GIVEN The statement concerning civil penalties serves as a penalty notice on this Licensing Report and failure to correct cited licensing deficiencies will result in civil penalties. Applicants/ licensees are required to pay civil penalties when administrative appeals have been exhausted and in accordance with any payment arrangements made with the licensing agency.

APPEAL RIGHTS The applicant/licensee has a right without prejudice to discuss any disagreement in this report with the licensing agency concerning the proper application of licensing requirements. The applicant/ licensee may request a formal review by the licensing agency to amend or dismiss the notice of deficiency and/ or civil penalty. Requests for review shall be made in writing within 15 business days of receipt of a deficiency notification or civil penalty assessment. Licensing deficiencies may be appealed pursuant to the procedures in the LIC 9058 Applicant/Licensee Rights.

AGENCY REVIEW The licensing agency review of an appeal may be conducted based upon information provided in writing by the applicant/licensee. The applicant/licensee may request an office meeting to provide additional information. The applicant/licensee will be notified in writing of the results of the agency review within 60 business days of the date when all necessary information has been provided to the licensing agency.

EMAIL REQUIREMENT Adult Community Care Facilities, Residential Care Facilities for the Chronically Ill, and Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly are required to provide and maintain an active email address of record with the licensing agency.

Capacity and limitations on the license were being maintained. At least one staff member with current CPR and Pediatric First Aid certification was present during care hours and offsite activities. The name of the facility director or designated acting director has been reported to the Department. All children were under visual supervision at all times, and staffing met the required teacher-child ratios.

A sample review of children’s files showed complete records, including emergency contact information, medical assessments, Infant Needs and Services Plans, and Individual Infant Sleeping Plans. Staff files reviewed were complete with health screenings, required immunization records (influenza, pertussis, and measles), current mandated reporter training certificates, and documentation confirming that all infant caregivers met the required educational qualifications.

LPA discussed the Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) website (www.ccld.ca.gov) as a resource for forms, regulations, Provider Information Notices (PINs), and quarterly updates. Reporting requirements, per Section 101212, were also reviewed. LPA reminded Staff #1 that all adults 18 years or older, including employees and volunteers (with exceptions noted in Health and Safety Code section 1596.871), must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption or transfer an existing clearance prior to being present at the facility. Violations are subject to a civil penalty of $100 per day, up to five days, or up to 30 days for repeat violations.

Assembly Bill (AB) 2370 requires licensed child care centers constructed before January 1, 2010, to test water used for drinking and food preparation for lead before January 1, 2023, and every five years thereafter. Centers licensed after July 1, 2022, must test within 180 days of licensure. LPA verified the facility’s compliance with lead testing requirements under Written Directives section 101700 and referred Staff #1 to the Department’s water testing resource webpage. LPA referred Staff #1 to the Department website for lead: www.cdss.ca.gov/inforesources/child-care-licensing/water-testing-information.

Safe sleep regulations were discussed, along with the Child Care Licensing Safe Sleep webpage (https://www.cdss.ca.gov/inforesources/child-care-licensing/public-information-and-resources/safe-sleep). LPA advised checking the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) website (https://www.cpsc.gov) for recalled infant devices and encouraged registration of all equipment with the CPSC for recall notifications.

At the time of inspection, no infants required an Incidental Medical Services (IMS) Plan. LPA reviewed IMS policy and provided PIN 22-02-CCP for reference. When IMS is provided, the licensee must submit an updated Plan of Operation to the Department. Information regarding the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), including contact numbers and the “Commonly Asked Questions About Child Care Centers and the ADA” publication link, was provided: US Department of Justice (USDOJ) toll-free ADA Information Line at (800) 514-0301 (voice) or (800) 514-0383 (TTY) and link to publication. Commonly Asked Questions about Child Care Centers and the ADA are available at: https://www.ada.gov/resources/child-carecenters/.

LPA also informed Staff #1 of the MyChildCarePlan.org consumer education website, which connects families with child care providers and local Resource & Referral Agencies.

An exit interview was conducted, and the report was reviewed with Staff #1. Appeal Rights were provided. No deficiencies were cited under Title 22, Division 12 of the California Code of Regulations. A LIC 9213 Notice of Site Visit was issued and must be posted for 30 days. This report is public record and must be made available upon request.
