A complete file review was conducted prior to today’s visit. LPA met with licensee, Angelica Valenzuela who provided a tour of facility inside and outside. There are 5 children present today.

The investigation consisted of interviews with the licensee, witnesses, police report and a review of facility records. On 12/08/22, the Los Banos Police Department arrived at the licensed facility after receiving information that licensee, Angelica Valenzuela appeared to be under the influence of alcohol while day-care children were in care. The police report stated that the licensee, Angelica Valenzuela “exhibited glossy eyes and slightly slurred her speech. Angelica took extended pauses while speaking and slightly swayed from side to side”.
