25 | On December 15, 2022 at 9:00 am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Monique Ayala conducted an announced inspection at the facility noted above and met with Program Manager, Jessica Quintero. The announced inspection was due to the facility currently being on inactive status and requesting to operate again. The purpose of the inspection was also to conduct the Annual/Random inspection. Entrance Checklist – Child Care Centers (LIC 125) was provided to the Program Manager upon arrival. The school-age program is located at the Lakewood Family YMCA. Per Program Manager, the program operates Monday through Friday from 6:30 am to 6:00 pm while children within the Long Beach Unified School District are on school breaks.
The program provides child care inside the gymnasium. Based on interview with the Program Manager and LPAs observations, the facility does not have outside activity space available for the children however, the children are able to participate in physical exercise activities inside the gym. Upon arrival, no children or other staff were present. LPA was informed that parents/guardians sign their children in and out when they enter the facility from the back entrance prior to the children entering the gym.
The following documents are posted in a prominent, publicly accessible area at the facility: Facility License, Menu, Child Passenger Restraint System Poster (PUB 269), Notification of Parents' Rights (PUB 393), Emergency Disaster Plan (LIC 610), Personal Rights (LIC 613A), and Daily Activity Schedule.
Furniture and equipment were inspected for age appropriateness and good repair. Telephone service, heating, lighting and ventilation were evaluated. Sinks and toilets were inspected for availability and good repair. General sanitation was observed. Per Program Manager, the isolation area is located in the Teen Center, and the staff restroom is available if an ill child requires it.
