On July 21, 2026, at 8:00 a.m., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Elimika Woods met with Licensee Maria C. Martinez to conduct an unannounced annual random inspection. The facility operates as a Large Family Child Care Home with a licensed capacity of fourteen (14) children. At the time of the inspection, no children were present in care. LPA toured the facility, both indoors and outdoors, with the licensee to conduct a health and safety inspection.

The single-story home is owned and operated by the licensee and consists of three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, kitchen, laundry area, converted garage, and backyard. The home was observed to be clean, orderly, and well maintained. It is equipped with centralized heating and ventilation to help ensure the safety and comfort of children in care. LPA asked the licensee whether there were any firearms in the home or if transportation was provided 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 facility's hours of operation are Monday through Friday, from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

On-limit areas include the master bedroom, hallway bathroom, living room, kitchen, dining room, middle backyard area, and the bedroom located near the front entrance of the home.

The designated isolation area for ill children is the bedroom near the front entrance, which is separate from the other children in care.

Off-limit areas include the first bedroom on the left side of the hallway, the upper left section of the backyard, the master bathroom, laundry area, lower backyard, and converted garage. These areas are inaccessible to children through the use of closed and/or locked doors and are further monitored through visual supervision.

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.

Around 8:15 AM, 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. The following information regarding ADA was provided: US Department of Justice (USDOJ) toll-free ADA Information Line at (800) 514-0301 (voice)/ (800) 514-0383 (TTY) and link to publication: Commonly Asked Questions about Child Care Centers and the ADA, available at: https://www.ada.gov/resources/child-care-centers/.


LPA inspected the cabinets and storage areas throughout the on-limit portions of the home, including the master bedroom, hallway bathroom, living room, kitchen, dining room, and bedroom near the front entrance. No hazardous materials, cleaning supplies, medications, or other toxic substances were observed to be accessible to children during today's inspection. LPA tested the smoke and carbon monoxide detector located in the kitchen and verified that both were functioning properly. The home is equipped with a working telephone, a fully stocked first aid kit, and a fully charged 2A10BC fire extinguisher that meets the standards established by the State Fire Marshal. The fireplace located in the living room is equipped with a protective screen to prevent children's access.

At 8:30 a.m., LPA inspected the backyard and confirmed that there were no swimming pools, hot tubs, or other bodies of water present, in compliance with childcare licensing regulations. The outdoor play area includes age-appropriate play equipment, outdoor furniture, and a basketball court. The backyard is fully fenced and was observed to be free of defects or hazardous conditions. Mature trees provide adequate shade and protection from direct sunlight during outdoor play. Multiple storage sheds located in the backyard were secured with locks to prevent children from accessing equipment and tools.

The licensee currently has no children enrolled in care; therefore, no children's files were available for review during today's inspection. The licensee conducts and documents fire and disaster drills at least once every six months. LPA reviewed the drill log and verified that the most recent fire and disaster drill was conducted on July 1, 2026. LPA reviewed the licensee's Pediatric CPR and First Aid certification and verified that it is current, with an expiration date of September 2026. LPA also verified that the licensee completed the required Mandated Reporter Training on August 6, 2025. The facility roster was reviewed and found to accurately reflect the children currently enrolled, as well as those no longer attending the facility. LPA observed that all required licensing notices and documents were posted in a location readily visible for public review.

LPA discussed the safe sleep regulations with licensee and discussed the Child Care Licensing Safe Sleep webpage at https://www.cdss.ca.gov/inforesources/child-care-licensing/public-information-andresources/safe-sleep as an additional resource. LPA also informed licensee of the importance of checking for recalled infant devices on the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) website at https://www.cpsc.gov/ and recommended they register all infant devices with the CPSC to be notified of any recalls on their purchased equipment.

Effective August 1, 2003, California Law requires Family Child Care Home licensees to report unusual incidents or injuries to children in care to children’s parents and to the Department of Social Services using the Unusual Incident/Injury form (LIC 624B). Incidents must be reported within 24 hours by phone, fax, or electronic mail. The licensee was also reminded that Mandated Reporter Training ("General" and "Child Care Providers") is required for all staff and is to be renewed every 2 years by visiting www.mandatedreporterca.com.

Licensee was reminded that all adults 18 and over living or working in the home, including employees and volunteers, except as specified in Health and Safety Code section 1596.871, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a licensed Family Child Care Home. A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day for a maximum of 5 days or, if the penalty is for a repeat violation, for a maximum of 30 days per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.
