25 | On September 24, 2026, at approximately 11:45 a.m., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Elimika Woods met with Licensee Lidiette Trejos to conduct an unannounced Annual Random Inspection. The facility operates as a Large Family Child Care Home with a licensed capacity of forteen (14) children. At the time of the inspection, three (3) preschool-age children, one infant, and one (1) school-age child were in care and being supervised by the licensee. LPA toured the facility with the licensee, including the interior and exterior areas, to conduct a health and safety inspection.
The two story home is owned and operated by the licensee and consists of three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, dining room, kitchen, child care room, backyard, and attached two car garage. LPA asked the licensee whether there were any firearms in the home or whether she provided transportation for children in care. The licensee stated that there are no firearms in the home and that she does not provide transportation for children in care. The home was observed to be clean, orderly, and well maintained. The home is equipped with centralized heating and ventilation to ensure the safety and comfort of the children. The fireplace located in the living room is properly screened/blocked to prevent access by children. The hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
The on-limit areas are the living room, dining room, kitchen, child care room, bathroom, backyard, and deck. The designated isolation area is the living room, which is located away from the other children in care.
The child care room is secured with a gate barrier to prevent children from freely accessing other areas of the home.
The off-limit areas include the entire second level of the home, the right and left side yards, and the shed located in the backyard. These areas are made inaccessible to children by closed and/or locked doors and visual supervision.
Around 12:00 pm, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) asked the licensee whether she was providing Incidental Medical Services (IMS) to children in care, and the licensee stated that she was not.
LPA discussed the Incidental Medical Services (IMS) policy with the licensee. LPA advised the licensee that when any IMS is provided, a Plan for Providing IMS must be submitted to the Department.
