Information from the complainant indicates that there are squirrels on the facility grounds.

All staff state that squirrels use to get into the children's lunches brought from home, when they were left outside by the classroom doors. The facility classrooms are all surrounded by outdoor areas. Per staff, some used a netting over where the food was stored but the squirrels would bite through it. Staff have moved lunches inside the classrooms so that the squirrels cannot get to them. Squirrels have not entered the classrooms and have not been a danger to the children in care.

During inspection on 06/09/2023, LPA did observe squirrels on different parts of the outdoor property running around but did not observe any getting into classrooms or disturbing the children in care. LPA advised facility to continue to store the school lunches inside the classrooms so that squirrels will be unable to get to them.

Based on the information provided, although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation(s) did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.

The Notice of Site Visit (LIC 9213) – must remain posted for 30 days during the hours of operation after each site visit made by a licensing representative.



Exit interview was conducted with Director Lucero San Lucas, at 1:30pm. Copy of report provided.
