32 | LPA inspected the outdoor play area and observed it to be fully fenced, free of hazards, and equipped with age‑appropriate equipment. Sufficient cushioning was present under and around climbing structures. Shade was available through awnings. Children had access to drinking water outdoors. There were no bodies of water on the premises.
LPA reviewed a sample of children’s records and observed that files were complete, including admission agreements, medical assessments, and emergency information. Infant needs and services plans and 15-minute sleep logs were documented and retained as applicable. Personnel records were reviewed and contained documentation of qualifications, required immunizations, health screening, and completion of mandated reporter training. At least one staff member present had current CPR and First Aid certification.
A review of staff records indicates that all adults who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse clearances or exemptions. Director was reminded that all adults 18 and over, 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.
LPA verified that the center’s lead testing requirements were completed in accordance with Written Directives outlined in PIN 21-21.1-CCP.
LPA discussed the safe sleep regulations with the facility representative and reviewed the Child Care Licensing Safe Sleep webpage at https://www.cdss.ca.gov/inforesources/child-care-licensing/public-information-and-resources/safe-sleep as an additional resource. LPA also informed the representative of the importance of checking for recalled infant devices on the CPSC website at https://www.cpsc.gov/ and recommended registering all infant devices to receive recall notifications.
