On July 31, 2023, at 9:50 a.m., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Gloria Gonzalez conducted an unannounced Annual Required Inspection and met with the Licensee, Blanca Miranda.  LPA disclosed the purpose of the inspection and was granted entry into the facility by the Licensee.  Six (6) daycare children and one (1) staff member was present in the facility during this inspection. This facility is a two (2) story, 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom house. Licensee states a door was added to the loft upstairs, making it a 4th bedroom upstairs. Licensee accompanied LPA inside and out of the facility during this inspection. The following areas used for child care are: living room 1 &2, dining room, kitchen, downstairs bathroom, daycare room (through the double doors in the kitchen area), infant area. Off limits areas are garage (includes two rooms that are rented out, adults renting have been criminally record cleared), and all of upstairs (4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) and are inaccessible through use of door knob covers and a safety gate. Hours of operation are: Monday-Friday from 3:30 am-5:30 pm.

The fire extinguisher, smoke detector, and carbon monoxide detector met requirements.  Hazardous items were made inaccessible to children during the inspection. The licensee has toys, play equipment and materials available.  The home has a fenced backyard available for outdoor activities at time of inspection. The upstairs is not used and is gated off at the bottom of the stairway and the Licensee understands the gate must be in place when children under five years are present during day care hours. No bodies of water observed on the premises during the inspection. LPA observed locked storage area for firearms and other dangerous weapons.  A review of staff records on this date indicates that all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse clearances.  Licensee was reminded that all adults 18 and over living or working in the home, including employees and volunteers, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a licensed Family Child Care Home.  A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day up to $500.00 maximum per day/per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.
