On December 3, 2021 at 1:45PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Meghan McGee conducted an unannounced visit to the facility to conduct a Case Management on a self reported incident that occurred on 11/10/2021. Upon arrival, LPA met with Mary Hettrick, Field Director and informed the nature of the visit. There was a total of 88 children being supervised by 17 staff and the Field Director.

The El Segundo Child Care Regional Office received an Unusual Incident/Injury report on 11/10/2021. The report stated that Child 1 (C1) was inside the classroom walking around another child who was sitting on a chair. C1 tripped on the chair and fell forward causing C1 to hit their mouth on the table. C1 chipped their front top left tooth. C1’s parent was notified and picked up C1 from the facility that day.

No other children were injured or at risk at the time of incident. Staff was present and observed the incident.

LPA inspected the area where the injury occurred and did not observe any malformations or items protruding from the furniture that would be a risk to children in care. LPA conducted staff interviews.

Based on this information there was no violation of Title 22 Regulations.

No deficiency cited.
