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.

that the facility has cameras; however, she does not have access to the camera system, and video footage is not saved. A signed declaration was obtained. The director stated that once the maintenance workers left the facility, the teachers and director conducted a walk-through of the areas where the work had been completed and did not observe any items left behind. The director explained that the maintenance workers were on-site to replace window screens and complete work orders on June 18,2026.

During an interview, Child #1 stated that they found “something” outside near the classroom window and placed it in their pocket. Child #1 said seeing 2 boy workers fixing the window and stated that the workers had tools with them that made loud noises. Child #1 further stated that they later gave it to their parent, who did not keep it. Child #1, additionally showed LPA Perry the location where the item was found, in which it was in front of the classroom window where screen repairs were made.

During an interview, EMCOR maintenance worker, stated that they were responsible for replacing three window screens on June 18, 2026, including the classroom window identified by Child #1. EMCOR worker confirmed that replacing the window screens required the use of a razor blade to cut the screen material as part of the repair process.

Based on interviews conducted, record reviews, and review of pertinent documentation, LPA determined that Visitor log documents that EMCOR work order employee was on site on June 18, 2026, conducting repairs, repairing and replacing window screens at the facility in which they arrived at 8:55am. During the interview with Child #1, the child walked LPA Perry to the location where the item was found, specifically in front of the classroom window. Based on staff and director interviews, it was confirmed that the item provided by the parent was a razor blade. During the maintenance worker interview, it was confirmed that they did replace the window screen for the same classroom window identified by Child #1 and stated that a razor blade was used to cut the window screen during the repair process. LPA did conclude that the razor blade was found directly in front of the classroom window where the screen replaced occurred.

Based on the information obtained during the investigation, the Department has determined that the facility failed to maintain the buildings and grounds in a safe condition, as a razor blade was accessible to a child in care. Therefore, One (1) Type B deficiency is being cited pursuant to Title 22, California Code of Regulations, Section 101238(a) – Buildings and Grounds, which requires that the buildings and grounds of the childcare center be kept safe, clean, and in good repair at all times.Currently the facility is not in compliance with Title 22 regulations. Please see the LIC809 D page for the deficiency issued.

Exit interview conducted with Director Pam. Appeal rights provided and discussed. NOS was provided and must remain posted for 30 days.
