25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Angelica Vargas conducted an unannounced annual inspection for a large family childcare at the above home on 02/19/2026 at 8:00 AM. LPA met with Licensee Blanca Medina, who guided LPA on a tour of the home. There were 3 child present with Licensee when LPA arrived. During the visit, the facility had 11 children enrolled and 8 children present with the licensee and an assistant.
The facility operates Monday through Friday from 6:30 AM to 7:00 PM each day. Certain areas are off-limits, including the entire second floor, bedroom #1, bathroom inside bedroom #1, bedroom used as office, and garage. The facility is licensed as a large Family Child Care Home (FCCH) with a maximum capacity of fourteen children and is operating within the licensed capacity of the license. The fire clearance for a large family child care was approved on 12/01/2021 by Perris Fire Department.
During the inspection, LPA observed Licensee to be responsive and aware of where the children were at all times. A working cell phone is available, and the current phone number on file is correct. A fully charged fire extinguisher (3A:10BC) was observed, along with a functioning smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector, both of which were tested by the Licensee. The fireplace is completely blocked with wood to prevent access by children. No weapons are present, and the Licensee, Blanca Medina, understands that all firearms, weapons, and ammunition must be locked separately and made inaccessible as per Title 22 Regulations. Stairs are barricaded with a baby gate that is not properly latching at the time of inspection.
The facility provides clean, safe, and age-appropriate toys for children. A current roster is on file, and required postings, including the Facility Sketch, Emergency Disaster Plan, and Notification of Parent’s Rights, are displayed. Fire and disaster drill documentation is maintained, with the last drill conducted on January 12, 2026.
