This is an amended report due to prior indoor activity space error.
On 08/20/2024 at 11:55am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Selina Siao conducted an unannounced Case Management inspection for an increase in capacity. Upon arrival, LPA met with Director Kimberly Vandergrift. Applicant is requesting to be licensed for 139 preschool children ages 2 through kindergarten in classrooms 140, 141, 142, 143, 150, 152, 153, Fellowship Hall and the new classrooms are room 51 and 52. Facility operates Monday to Friday from 8am to 4pm. LPA did not observe any children in care today as school will start on 08/26/2024. All indoor and outdoor activity space utilized for the children was inspected today. LPA informed Director that staff are required to maintain direct visual supervision of the children at all times during indoor and outdoor activities.

LPA continued to tour the facility and remeasured all the indoor and outdoor activity space. Total indoor activity space measured to be 5637.55 square feet, which is sufficient to accommodate up the requested capacity of 139 children. LPA observed all indoor activity space to be complete with safe, age-appropriate furniture and equipment, including tables, chairs, cubbies, napping mats, bookshelves, and other activity supplies for the children. Drinking water is available in the classrooms via a Brita water pitcher from the classroom sink or the kitchen sink. LPA observed all hazardous items to be inaccessible to children. Director stated that there are no bodies of water or weapons on the property. Fire clearance was granted on 07/23/2024 for the requested capacity of 139 children.

LPA observed a total of 18 sinks, 9 toilets and 1 urinal available for children’s use. These are sufficient to accommodate the requested capacity of 139 children.



The facility currently has a fully fenced playground area. Facility has a stucco fencing that is at least four feet high. The total square footage for all the outdoor activity space is 8737.74 square feet, which is sufficient for only 116 children at one time, insufficient for

the number of children being requested. The smaller playground measured to be 2338.14 square feet and the larger playground measured to be 6399.60 square feet. A playground waiver to share the playground at different times in the AM and PM due to limited square footage shall be submitted and approved prior to the approval of the capacity increase of 136 children. The smaller playground that is use by the 2-year-old children, shade is provided via a sail shade, trees, and umbrella. The larger playground that is use by the 3-, 4- and 5-years old children shade is provided via a large umbrella shade structure, multiple umbrellas and trees. There are sufficient outdoor age-appropriate toys and play equipment available on the playground. There is a climbing structure on both playgrounds that does not have a manufacturer's sticker, but it appears to be age appropriate for preschool children based on the height. There is adequate cushioning in fall zones of both climbers provided by wood chips. Drinking water is available via the children's own water bottles. LPA observed all hazardous items on the playground to be inaccessible to children. Director was reminded that any changes to the facility must be reported to and approved by Community Care Licensing.

Facility representative was reminded that all adults 18 and over responsible for administration or direct supervision of staff, persons who provides care and supervision to children, and staff who have contact with children, including employees and volunteers, except as specified in Health and Safety Code section 1596.871, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a Child Care Center. A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day for a maximum of 5-days or, if the penalty is for a repeat violation, for a maximum of 30-days per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.

Director would really like to start using the new classrooms 51 and 52 on Monday 08/26/2024 therefore a license for 116 children will be granted unless the department approved the outdoor playground waiver timely for the facility to operate with the requested capacity of 139 children.

Director will submit an outdoor playground waiver to LPA today for the department's approval.
