On January 9, 2024, Licensing Program Analyst's (LPA's) Susana Martinez and Veronica Diaz conducted an unannounced Required- 3 Year inspection. LPA's met with licensee Alexandra Sanchez and advised the purpose of the inspection. Licensee provided LPA's a tour of the home inside and out. There were ten children in care and three adults in the home at the time of inspection. Licensee denies having guns/ammunition in the home.

LPA observed required licensing documents mounted on the wall in the main day-care room. At 12:39 PM, while touring the inside of the home, LPA's observed an infant child (C1) in a crib with a blanket covering the child's face. LPA's reminded Licensee that infants in cribs cannot have any loose items, Licensee responded saying child was over 2 years old. Licensee removed the blanket from the child's face. The child was found to be sound asleep and did not wake. Per record review it was determined that C1 is under two years old. Fire and earthquake drills are being documented every six months. Last drill was conducted on 7/3/2023. Fire extinguisher 2A10BC mounted on the wall inside the day-care room was last serviced 11/13/2023. Fire and carbon monoxide detectors were observed in the home. Detectors were not tested due to napping children.

Children in care have access to one main day-care room, one restroom, living room, and back yard. Kitchen is completely off limits, LPA's observed baby gates preventing children from accessing the kitchen. Children have access to toys that are age-appropriate inside and outside of the home. Back yard play area is enclosed and has plenty of bicycles, scooters, and activities. LPA's observed a pool in the backyard. LPA's advised Licensee that fences surrounding pools shall be at least five feet high and pool gates shall swing away from the pool, self-close and have a self-latching device located no more than six inches from the top of the gate.

LPA reviewed five out of ten children files. All children files were current. Licensee CPR/first aid is valid through 6/8/2025. Licensee was reminded a licensed child day care provider, administrator, or employee of a licensed child day care facility shall complete the mandated reporter certification AB1207 every two years at www.mandatedreporterca.com. Licensee's certification is valid through 1/9/2024.
