On 10/30/2025 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Lisa Clayton arrived at the Baranova Family Child Care home to conduct the 10-day complaint investigation on the above-mentioned allegations received by the El Segundo Child Care Regional Office (ESCCRO) on 10/28/2025. LPA Clayton arrived at 8:30am and was greeted by Teacher Bibiane Kintaudi. LPA Clayton made several attempts to reach licensee by phone and left several messages – no answer or return call from Licensee was received. LPA Clayton observed 6 children being cared for by 2 fingerprint cleared staff.

LPA Clayton toured the CCC inside and outside for a Health and Safety Inspection.
During this visit LPA Clayton received a copy of the Facility Roster (LIC 9040) and a copy of the Personnel Report (LIC 500).

Based on LPA Claytons investigation and observation which included arrival to the Family Child Care home before operating hours began, and remaining at the home until 2:45pm during which time the Licensee Albina Baranova never arrived, it has been determined that the Licensee is away from the home more than 20% of the time per day.
