A review of staff records on this date indicates facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse clearances or exemptions. Director 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.

All required notices, forms and license(s) were posted. Capacity and limitations as specified on the license are being maintained. At least one person trained in EMSA approved Pediatric CPR and First Aid is present when children are at the facility or at offsite activities. The name of the childcare center director or fully qualified teacher, designated to act in the director’s absence, has been reported to the Department. Children are under supervision, including visual supervision, of a teacher at all times. The person who signs the child in/out of the facility shall use their full signature and record the time of day. Sign in/out sheets reviewed and observed by the LPA meet this regulation. Facility maintains a ratio of one teacher supervising no more than 14 children in care. This facility transports children. All required documentation is completed and was reviewed.

LPA reviewed a sample of children’s files and observed files were complete with contact information for authorized representative and or relatives or others who can assume responsibility for the child and medical assessment. LPA reviewed a sample of staff files and observed that Staff #1 (S1) and Director’s mandated reporter training certificate on file is invalid or expired. Director stated that he had not renewed it but was aware that he needed to renew it. LPA also observed that Staff #2’s (S2) CPR card is expired. Remaining staff files that were reviewed had no record of required educational courses qualifications.
