On 3/10/2023 at 10:45 am Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Carolyn Tuba conducted an unannounced POC (plan of correction) inspection to ensure the 2 Type A deficiencies cited on 03/06/2023 for 1 complaint have been cleared. A COVID risk assessment was conducted upon entry and appropriate PPE was used. LPA met with acting Director, Yolanda Mena, who guided LPA and observed 25 children and 4 staff present at the facility during this inspection.

During the visit acting Director guided LPA who observed that lunchboxes, jackets, and water bottles are being kept in the classroom to avoid children wandering into the hallways to grab personal items unsupervised. LPA observed a child safety latch on 2 classroom doors that are used to change children’s diapers. One door is located near the children’s restroom and the other leads into the main classroom.

LPA scanned photos of the transcript and obtained copies from the acting Director for staff and they are found to be qualified teachers and have the necessary units. Acting Director shared with LPA that they are in the process of hiring additional staff so that she can handle the administrative duties until the current Director returns in May of 2023. Director shared that the parents have been encouraged to use the code on the door for drop-off and pick-up inside the facility instead of having staff meet parents at the entrance door.

LPA cleared the deficiency on this date and provided a copy of the Licensing Report to Yolanda Mena. LPA also issued POC clearance letters during the visit.

At this time, the facility is in compliance with California Code of Regulations Title 22. Therefore, no deficiencies are being cited.
