Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) William Chancellor conducted an unannounced annual inspection for Valencia Family Childcare (FCCH) on July 31, 2025, at 11:35 AM. LPA met with Licensee (LIC) Jessica Valencia, who granted entry and provided LPA a tour through the FCCH.

The facility operates Monday through Friday from 5:00 AM-5:00 PM, serving children from birth to thirteen years old. Certain areas listed as off-limits include attached garage, laundry room, and entire second story. Children primarily utilize the living room, dining room and outdoor play yard. Off-limit areas include child safety doorknobs and child safety gates making them inaccessible to children. Facility is licensed as a large FCCH with a maximum capacity of fourteen (14) children and is operating within the capacity listed on the license. During the inspection, LPA observed ten daycare children and two additional assistants. LPA observed daycare children eating snacks, playing in developmentally appropriate centers, coloring, and engaging with peers.

A working cell phone is available, and the current phone number on file is correct. A fully charged fire extinguisher (2A:10BC) was observed in the laundry room. LPA observed operational dual smoke and carbon monoxide detectors mounted in the hallway. Kitchen knives were observed to be inaccessible to daycare children atop the refrigerator. LPA reminded licensee that all poisons and cleaning compounds deemed hazardous must be locked by a key. The license stated they understand that all off-limit areas are made inaccessible by child safety gates, doorknobs or lock and key, and must be operational during daycare hours.

A current roster was available for review during inspection. LPA confirmed the required postings, including the Facility Sketch, Emergency Disaster Plan, License and Notification of Parent’s Rights, are displayed in the daycare entry way. Fire and disaster drill documentation was available, recording the last drill in May 2025. Licensee was reminded that drills are required at least every six months, documenting fire and earthquake drills on different dates.

FACILITY EVALUATION REPORT California law requires a public report of each licensing visit/inspection. This report is a record for the facility and the licensing agency. This report is available for public review; therefore, care is taken not to disclose personal or confidential information. Inquiries concerning the location, maintenance, and contents of these reports may be directed to the Licensing Program Analyst or Regional Office whose address and telephone number are listed on the front of this form.

DEFICIENCIES A deficiency is an instance of noncompliance with licensing requirements, including applicable statutes, regulations, interim licensing standards, operating standards, and written directives. Applicants/ licensees must be notified in writing of all licensing deficiencies. Deficiencies are listed on the left side of this form, and the applicable licensing requirement upon which the deficiency is identified. There are two types of deficiencies:
  • Type A deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, if not corrected, have a direct and immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care.
  • Type B deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, without correction, could become a risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care, a recordkeeping violation that could impact the care of said persons and/or protection of their resources, or a violation that could impact those services required to meet the needs of persons in care.

PLANS OF CORRECTION (POCs) The licensing agency is required to establish a reasonable length of time to correct a deficiency. In order to set the time, the licensing agency must take into consideration the seriousness of the violation, the number of persons in care involved, and the availability of equipment and personnel necessary to correct the violation. Applicants/licensees are requested to provide a specific plan for each violation on the right side of the form across from each deficiency. The more specific the plan, the less chance exists for any misunderstanding in setting time limits and reviewing corrections. The applicant/licensee who encounters problems beyond their control in completing the corrections within the specified time frame may request and may be granted an extension of the correction due date by the licensing agency.

CORRECTION NOTIFICATION The applicant/licensee is responsible for completing all corrections and promptly notifying the licensing agency of corrections. Applicants/licensees are advised to keep a dated copy of any correspondence sent to the licensing agency concerning corrections, or if corrections are telephoned to the licensing agency, the date, person contacted, and information given.

CIVIL PENALTIES The licensing agency is required by law to issue a Penalty Notice, when applicable, to all facilities holding a license issued by the licensing agency, or subject to licensure, except Certified Family Homes, Resource Families, and Foster Family Homes, or any governmental entity.

PENALTY NOTICE GIVEN The statement concerning civil penalties serves as a penalty notice on this Licensing Report and failure to correct cited licensing deficiencies will result in civil penalties. Applicants/ licensees are required to pay civil penalties when administrative appeals have been exhausted and in accordance with any payment arrangements made with the licensing agency.

APPEAL RIGHTS The applicant/licensee has a right without prejudice to discuss any disagreement in this report with the licensing agency concerning the proper application of licensing requirements. The applicant/ licensee may request a formal review by the licensing agency to amend or dismiss the notice of deficiency and/ or civil penalty. Requests for review shall be made in writing within 15 business days of receipt of a deficiency notification or civil penalty assessment. Licensing deficiencies may be appealed pursuant to the procedures in the LIC 9058 Applicant/Licensee Rights.

AGENCY REVIEW The licensing agency review of an appeal may be conducted based upon information provided in writing by the applicant/licensee. The applicant/licensee may request an office meeting to provide additional information. The applicant/licensee will be notified in writing of the results of the agency review within 60 business days of the date when all necessary information has been provided to the licensing agency.

EMAIL REQUIREMENT Adult Community Care Facilities, Residential Care Facilities for the Chronically Ill, and Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly are required to provide and maintain an active email address of record with the licensing agency.

Licensee was reminded 15-min sleep logs are required for all infants until the age of 24 months. LPA reminded licensee that sleep logs shall document position of the infant, under the age of 12 months, and include staff initials. When sleeping in a separate room the door must remain open; the provider should be able to visually observe the infant without moving the door. Additionally, pacifiers are allowed in the crib or play yard, if nothing is attached to it. Clothes clips are only permitted when the infant is mobile. Once the infant can climb out of a playpen, it is no longer age appropriate, and the infant can transition to a cot or mat with a blanket. The playpen must be kept free of all loose blankets.

Incidental Medical Services (IMS) policy was discussed. For IMS information see PIN 22-02-CCP. When any IMS is provided, an updated Plan of Operation that includes IMS must be submitted to the Department.

On July 16, 2025, the California Attorney General - Megan’s Law website was searched for information on sex offenders required to register with local law enforcement under California's Megan's Law. No registered sex offenders were found at the facility addresses.
