On 5/15/26, at 1:50 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Annette Sutherland conducted an unannounced visit to deliver findings regarding the above-referenced allegation. LPA met with Staff memeber Aljandra Guadian and toured the facility. During the investigation, LPA interviewed staff and parents and reviewed relevant documentation. Based on information obtained, the licensee stated that she has been using a garage office add-on for day care children as an a quiet place. The area had previously been identified as an off-limits area and had not been inspected or approved by the Department prior to use for child care activities. Licensee acknowledged understanding that off-limits areas must be inspected and approved by Licensing prior to use. The preponderance of evidence standard has been met; therefore, the allegation is found to be Substantiated. A Type B deficiency is being cited under California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1, Section 102416.3(a)(6), on the attached LIC 9099D.
NOTICE OF SITE VISIT WAS GIVEN AND WILL REMAIN POSTED FOR 30 DAYS. Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.
