On January 8, 2023, at 1:25 p.m., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kendal Zirbes met with Facility Representative Jade Wilkinson. The purpose of the inspection was to conduct a health and safety check. LPA disclosed the purpose of the inspection to the facility representative. Present during today’s inspection were 11 infants with three staff members providing care and supervision.

At approximately 1:35p.m., LPA and facility representative conducted a tour of the infant classroom. LPA observed child 1 (C1) falling sleeping in staff 1 (S1) arms. LPA observed C1 was swaddled while in S1's arms. LPA conducted follow up staff interviews regarding the swaddling observation. Staff interviews confirmed C1 is routinely swaddled while sleeping at the Center.

Based on LPA observation and staff interviews, C1 has been swaddled while sleeping at the Center. Therefore a Type B citation for regulation 101430 (a)(3)(C) Infant Care Activities is being issued in accordance with the California Code of Regulations, Title 22, see LIC809D.

A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the Administrator April Dogero.
