On 2/11/25 at 8:15AM Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Annette Sutherland conducted an unannounced annual inspection with the Licensee. Upon arrival, LPA met with Licensee Lydya Sabri. Also, in the home was Licensee's husband Rimon Saka, adult daughter Rozalinda Saka and 3 minor children. Licensee was provided the Inspection Checklist (LIC 126). The 2-story home was toured and inspected to ensure an environment safe for the care and supervision of children. Licensee’s own children left for school and 1 infant day care child arrived shortly after.

Licensee has provided adequate space for the children to eat, sleep and play within the home. Areas used for childcare include living room, dining room, kitchen, family room, bathroom #1 and backyard. Off limits areas include garage and entire upstairs and are inaccessible through use of a safety gate and door know covers. The licensee has sufficient toys and equipment available. The home has a fenced backyard available for outdoor activities. Licensee understands that supervision is always required during outdoor activities.

The fire extinguisher, smoke detector, and carbon monoxide detector meet requirements and are operational. All hazardous items were latched/locked and secured out of reach of children. There is a body of water on the property, the pool is properly fenced. AB 2866, Chapter 745, Statutes of 2024 added drowning prevention safety requirements for licensed childcare centers with in-ground pools, and licensed family childcare homes operated at private single-family homes with an in-ground pool. All affected licensees must comply with the new drowning prevention safety requirements, effective January 1, 2025. Licensee must add additional items to the fence. A family childcare home with a pool must have either a pool cover and/or an alarm meeting ASTM Standards, as specified.
A pool cover may be manually or power-operated, but it must meet the standards of ASTM International Standard F1346-23 A licensee shall maintain and make available for inspection, upon request by the department, documentation that establishes the cover is compliant with ASTM International Standard F1346-23.

An alarm must sound upon detecting entrance into the water. The alarm shall be turned on and be in working condition and audible during a facility’s operating hours while the swimming pool is not in use. FCCH Additional safety equipment

Safety equipment that must be visible from the pool and available for immediate use includes:


1. A life ring with a diameter of at least 17 inches with a United States Coast Guard approval label.
2. A rescue pole with a body hook that is at least 12 feet long but must be long enough to effectively rescue a child at the facility’s pool. It must be a fixed length – and not an adjustable pole. Additional guidance will be forthcoming in written directives to specify this requirement so that the pole must be long enough for a rescue at the facility’s pool. A wider pool may require a longer rescue pole.

The licensee must perform a daily inspection of all above safety features before children arrive for the day. A log of the daily inspections must be maintained by the licensee and provided to the Department upon request. This log will be checked along with the pool safety requirements during inspections or site visits. The Department is developing a form for daily inspections that will be provided through written directives. Until a department form is available, you can create your own log to verify daily pool inspections are completed.
Licensee states that there are no weapons in the home. First Aid and CPR certifications expire on May 2025. Licensee has required immunizations. Licensee is exempt from Mandated Reporter as her primary language is Arabic and Caledon.


Licensee was unable to provide file for infant present but had other children rostered file available to review. Staff records were reviewed and found to be in order. LPA obtained an updated facility roster and observed required documents are posted in an area accessible to parent/guardians.

Provider is hereby reminded of the following: Report suspected child abuse and neglect, maintain children’s records according to regulation, post all required forms; corporal punishment, smoking, exersaucers, bouncy seats, walkers, and jumpers are not allowed in day care. All equipment that is used should be used only as intended by the manufacturer. LPA and Licensee discussed California Megan's Law and LPA provided: www.meganslaw.ca.gov.
