Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Stephanie Li conducted an unannounced Case Management inspection due a decision and order received by the legal department regarding a criminal record for a previously associated individual on the licensee's mothers closed family child care home. Licensee's mother had a license at the same address and closed in 2021. LPA met with licensee Marycruz Ortiz and explained reason for visit. A COVID risk assessment was conducted. There were 3 children present and 1 staff. The facility was observed to be operating within the license capacity limitations.

On 12/06/2024, a decision and order was issued by the legal department for an individual that was associated to mother's previous license, with the same address. LPA verified that individual is not living in the home. Per licensee, he has not lived here for over 10 years. Per licensee, individual is her brothers stepson. Licensee received the report from her mother and contacted the DPSS legal division to request the individual not be connected to her family child care home. Per licensee, 4 adults live in the home (herself, mother, father, and brother in law) LPA and licensee confirmed that he is not on her Guardian roster. LPA obtained a declaration from licensee stating the individuals relationship and her attempts to clear her fcc of any relation to the decision and order. Per licensee, she is concerned about her license. She is attempting to obtain proof of his residents to send to the legal department. LPA provided licensee with child care lawyers contact information to reach out for guidance.
