25 | On 07/27/2023, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Ruby Ocegueda and Pa Kou Vue, conducted an unannounced Annual Required Inspection and was met by Licensee, Tammy Andrade. Also present was Staff #2 (S2). Days and hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 5:45 AM to 6:15 PM and Saturday care upon request.
LPAs toured the home inside and outside and a census was taken. Current facility sketch reviewed and Licensee confirmed that the kitchen, one hall bathroom, two living rooms, day care room and separate bathroom (accessible via the accessible play yard) are used by children. All other rooms are off-limits and made inaccessible by use of baby gates and door knob safety covers. During the inspection of the kitchen, LPA observed multiple items on the counters making it difficult for LPA’s to properly inspect. LPAs reviewed the requirement to have a clean and orderly environment. In the day care room, LPA’s observed an area in the corner of the room that was blocked off with book shelfs. Inside that area was a nap map with a baby gate, making an area similar to a play pen. LPA addressed this observation with licensee (see TA dated 7/27/2023). Swimming pool is fenced per regulation. The pool gate is self-latching, self-closing and opens away from the swimming pool. No windows or doors have direct access to the pool area. Per licensee, there are no firearms or ammunition in the home. Today there was accessible poison (Raid Spray) under the kitchen sink. The kitchen sink had a broken safety latch making the poison and other cleaning products accessible. Outside in the play yard that is identified as off limits there was mosquito repellant and weed killer. Today the sliding glass door was not secured as usual making the yard accessible. LPA advised that even if the yard is identified as off limits, potentially hazardous items outside in the yard should be made inaccessible and poisons locked.
There are no fireplaces or open face heaters in the home. There is a working fire extinguisher, smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector and adequate heating and ventilation for safety and comfort. Stairs are fenced or barricaded when children under age 5 years old are present. The home has working telephone service and LPA confirmed the phone number is (559) 542-4647. Report continued to 809-C
