On 2/17/2023, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Ocegueda conducted an unannounced Plan of Correction Inspection. The purpose of the inspection was to verify the plan of corrections had been completed as it pertained to the deficiencies cited on 1/13/2023 (see 9099 and 9099-D page dated 1/13/2023). LPA toured the facility and took a census.

Today, LPA Ocegueda observed that stuffed animals and dolls on a rack near the door remained stained and appeared dirty. Licensee stated she washed some of the toys. Upon arrival there was toys on the ground and chairs were scattered. The children's sized counter that is attached to the wall had food stains that licensee wiped up so that LPA could use. There was other debris on the counter. The kitchen counter that is accessible when children walk to the bathroom and where licensee cooks children’s, had multiple cleaning products and food that was on the counters. It was difficult to see the counters. One highchairs had multiple stains on the plastic and did not have the appearance of being regularly cleaned and disinfected. A second highchair also had multiple stains on the plastic and had multiple items on top of it. The restroom that is used by day care children was clean and orderly.

Licensee stated she empties the diaper pale on a daily basis now to avoid any odor in the facility and LPA collected a written statement from licensee that discussed her understanding on maintaining confidentiality of children in care per the deficiency cited on 1/13/2023.

Today, licensee stated she would remove any stained toys and stuffed animals. After washing, if toys remained stained, dirty or broken, she will remove them from the day care room and not allow children to play with them. Licensee stated she would clean and disinfect all counters (both counters in the day care room and all counters in the kitchen). All counters should remain clean and orderly free of clutter and debris during day care hours. Licensee will place cleaning supplies, medication, and other potentially dangerous items in an inaccessible area at all times. Today, Licensee removed these items under an inaccessible cabinet. Licensee understands that poisons should be locked. LPA reviewed potentially dangerous items with licensee. Report continued to 809-C.

LPA reviewed areas that are deemed inaccessible where potentially dangerous items could be stored. High chairs and play yards will be cleaned. If after cleaning, they remain stained or broken, these items will be removed and replaced with clean and unstained items. LPA explained the requirement to maintain a clean, healthful and safe environment for children. Based on today's discussions with licensee, a two weeks extension was granted in order for licensee to make the necessary corrections that were originally cited on 1/13/2023. LPA explained that failure to correct these items, could result in civil penalty violation and that a non-compliance meeting will be recommended if items are not satisfactorily corrected and maintained. Licensee understands that any part of the house that is accessible to children even while in passing (such as the kitchen) should be clean and orderly. Licensee indicated that she cooks meals in the kitchen for the children thus must be clean and orderly to ensure health and safety of children.

LPA Ocegueda will conduct a return inspection after 3/3/2023 to ensure that the items described above are corrected. Licensee is encouraged to contact LPA should she have any questions regarding the Plan of Corrections.

An exit interview was conducted with licensee Katherine Owens.

Per Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 3 of the California Code of Regulations, no deficiencies were cited today under this report.
