On 1/24/2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Priscilla Zamudio arrived at the facility to conduct an unannounced complaint inspection. The purpose of the inspection was to deliver investigation findings for the above allegations. LPA met with Licensee, Clarissa Jones. There were no daycare children present. During the course of this investigation, facility observations were completed, facility records were reviewed, interviews were conducted with licensee and parents of children in care.

Regarding “Licensee's conduct poses a risk to children in care," there is conflicting information received from interviews as to whether or not licensee’s conduct poses a risk to children in care. Therefore, the finding of this allegation is unsubstantiated. Although the allegation may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged allegation did or did not occur.
Regarding “Licensee forced the child to care for babies in her care”, there is conflicting information received from interviews as to whether or not a child was forced to care for babies in care. Therefore, the finding of this allegation is unsubstantiated. Although the allegation may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged allegation did or did not occur.

Per California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1, no deficiency was cited during today's inspection.

An exit interview was conducted with Licensee, Clarissa Jones. A copy of this report and Appeal Rights were provided and discussed.
