All individuals subject to criminal record review have obtained a criminal record clearance or exemption and are associated with the facility. The LPA conducted a census of the children and verified that the census matched the 30 children signed in on the attendance sheet. The designated isolation area for ill children is located next to the Director’s desk and is separated from other children in care.

At approximately 9:15 AM, the LPA inspected the three (3) classrooms and observed that teacher child ratios were being maintained. The classrooms were arranged to encourage exploration and learning. Each child had an individual storage space for personal belongings. Adequate play and learning materials were available, and the floors were clean. Furniture and equipment were age-appropriate and in good repair.

At approximately 9:30 AM, the LPA reviewed five (5) children’s files. Each file contained the required Admission Agreement, Notification of Parents’ Rights, Medical Consent Form, and Identification and Emergency Information. At approximately 10:15 AM, the LPA reviewed three (3) staff files. Each file contained the required Health Screening Report, Employee Rights forms, and the Statement Acknowledging Requirement to Report Child Abuse. At least one staff member present held a current Pediatric CPR and First Aid certification.

The LPA tested the carbon monoxide detector and confirmed it was functioning properly. The facility is equipped with hardwired smoke detectors throughout the building. According to the Director, the smoke detectors are fully operational, regularly serviced, and connected to notify the Pleasanton Fire Department when activated. The facility also maintains a working telephone, first aid kits, a pull-down fire alarm system, and multiple fully charged 3A40BC fire extinguishers that meet standards established by the State Fire Marshal. Disaster drills are conducted at least once every six months. The most recent drill was completed on April 14, 2026. All required licensing documents were posted in an area accessible to the public.

See LIC 809-C.

• 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.

Incidental Medical Services (IMS) policy was discussed. For IMS information see PIN 22-02CCP. When any IMS is provided, an updated Plan of Operation that includes 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) or (800) 514-0383 (TTY) and link to publication: Commonly Asked Questions about Child Care Centers and the ADA are available at: https://www.ada.gov/resources/child-care-centers/.

The staff and children share restroom facilities. Within both the women’s and men’s restrooms, there is a larger stall designated for adult use. The children’s restrooms are located in the center’s main hallway. The LPA verified that all toilets were functioning properly by flushing them and confirmed that they were operating safely. The water temperature was tested and found to be within a safe range for children in care. The restrooms were well stocked with soap, toilet tissue, and paper towels.

The outdoor playground area was fully fenced and free of defects or hazardous conditions at the time of the inspection. The play structure was securely anchored to the ground and had cushioning material underneath to absorb falls. The structure includes a slide and was observed to be in good repair. Additional outdoor equipment included small trucks, ride-on bikes, chairs, tables, a bench, a teeter-totter, and a basketball hoop court. The center has trees throughout the playground that provide adequate shade and protection from direct sunlight during outdoor play.

California Law requires Child Care Centers licensees to report unusual incidents or injuries to children in care to child's parents and to the Department of Social Services using the Unusual Incident/Injury form (LIC 624). Incidents must be reported within 24 hours by phone, fax, or electronic mail. The director 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.
