On 5/10/24, at 12PM Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Brittany Crass arrived at the home for an unannounced annual/random inspection. LPA met with licensee Joy Watson. There were seven preschool children in care during the inspection. Also present for the inspection was a fingerprint cleared assistant. There is one cat. This family childcare home operates Monday - Friday 8AM-6PM. LPA verified that the licensee's phone number and email address on file are correct.

LPA toured the on-limit areas of the home with the licensee, to conduct a health and safety inspection. The home is a single story home. LPA observed that the home is neat and clean with heating and ventilation for the safety and comfort of children in care. The on-limit areas include the living room, dining room, kitchen, one back bedroom used for napping, bathroom next to the bedroom, and the fully fenced in backyard. There is an anchored in play structure in the backyard. Licensee understands the play structure is to always remain anchored into the ground. The off-limit areas are made inaccessible by closed and/or locked doors, gates, and visual supervision. LPA observed locks on lower cabinets to prevent access by children. The nap room is used for isolation of sick children, away from other children in care.

The fireplace in the living room is blocked to prevent access by children. LPA observed an ample supply of age-appropriate toys, equipment and activities available for children both indoors and outdoors and observed that they are in good condition. LPA did not observe any bodies of water, toxins, medications or hazardous items that would be accessible to children. The licensee stated that there are no firearms on the premises.

The home is equipped with fully charged 3A40BC fire extinguisher, a working carbon monoxide detector, working smoke detector, working telephone, and first aid kits and supplies. Licensee has proof of current CPR/First aid certificates, which expire on 5/18/2024 and a Mandated Reporter Certificate which expires on 9/22/2024. The last documented fire drill was conducted on 10/20/2023. LPA observed all of the required forms posted. LPA reviewed children's files, staff files and obtained a copy of the current roster.

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.

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.

The licensees were encouraged to periodically review regulations, guidelines and Provider Information Notices (PINs) on the website www.ccld.ca.gov.
