On September 23, 2026, at 8:00 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Elimika Woods met with Director Mamta Kalra to conduct an Unannounced Annual Random Inspection. The center operates as a preschool center with a licensed capacity of sixty (60) children. At the time of the inspection, there were thirty-four (34) children in care being supervised by six (6) fingerprint-cleared staff members. LPA toured the facility with the Director, including the interior and exterior areas, to conduct a health and safety inspection. The center’s hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM.

LPA conducted a census of the children in care, and the census matched the thirty-four (34) signatures recorded in the electronic Building Kidz Connect App. The center consists of five (5) classrooms. The classrooms were inspected at approximately 8:25 AM, and the center was operating within the required staff-to-child ratios.

Each classroom has individual cubbies labeled with the children’s names for storing their personal belongings. Activity stations were adequately spaced to allow staff to set up projects and activities without interfering with other children in care. The floors were clean and well maintained. Low shelves were used to divide activity areas and allow children to independently select and return materials. The designated isolation area for a child who becomes ill is located in the Director’s office, which is separated from the other children in care.

The center has hardwired smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The smoke detectors are connected to notify the Hayward Fire Department when activated. Per the Director, the smoke detectors are fully functional and serviced regularly. The center has a working telephone, first aid kits, emergency backpacks, a pull-down fire alarm system, and multiple fully charged 2A10BC fire extinguishers that meet the standards established by the State Fire Marshal. Disaster drills are conducted at least once every six (6) months. The most recent disaster drill was conducted on August 19, 2026.

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.

At approximately 9:00 AM, LPA reviewed three (3) staff files and five (5) children’s files. The staff files contained the required Employee Rights forms, Health Records, and Statement Acknowledging Requirement to Report Child Abuse forms. All children’s files reviewed contained Identification and Emergency Information, Parents’ and Personal Rights forms, and Medical Consent forms. At least one staff member responsible for opening and closing the facility has a current CPR and First Aid certification.

Incidental Medical Services (IMS) policy was discussed. For IMS information see Evaluator Manual - Regulation Interpretations and Procedures for Child Care Centers Sections 101173 and 101226. 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)/ (800) 514-0383 (TTY) and link to publication: Commonly Asked Questions about Child Care Centers and the ADA, available at: http://www.ada.gov/childqanda.htm.

Per the Director, the center serves breakfast, lunch, and snacks to children in care. Weekly menus are posted at the entrance of the center for parents to review. Low-fat milk is served at the center. Staff ensure that all children are offered food in a safe and inclusive environment while accommodating known allergies and dietary restrictions when needed. LPA reminded the Director that all persons engaged in food preparation and service shall observe proper personal hygiene and food service sanitation practices to protect food from contamination. All storage containers for solid waste had tight-fitting covers and were observed to be in good repair.

The staff bathroom is separate from the children’s bathrooms. Some children’s bathrooms are located inside the classrooms, while others are located in the main hallway. All sinks and toilets were operating properly. The water temperature from the faucets was within a safe range to prevent burns while remaining warm enough for effective handwashing. The center had an adequate supply of soap, toilet paper, and paper towels available for children in care.

At approximately 8:45 AM, LPA inspected the playground area. The playground was fully fenced and free from defects and dangerous conditions at the time of the inspection. The playground contained age-appropriate equipment, including a slide, climbing apparatus, play kitchen, teeter-totters, balls, building blocks, playhouses, benches, tables, and chairs. Mature trees and a canopy provided shade and protection from direct sunlight during outdoor play. The slide and climbing structure were securely anchored to the ground, with cushioning material underneath to help absorb the impact of falls.

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.
