On August 25, 2026, at 8:50 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Vicky Williamson conducted an unannounced Case Management Inspection to remove the toddler component (ages 18-36 months), add a classroom and to increase the infant capacity. LPA met with Facility Representative Verenicia Chavez. Facility Representative is requesting to be licensed for 36 infants (ages 0 to 2 years old) in Infant Room 1, Infant Room 2 and Infant Room 3. Hours of operation are Monday to Friday from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM. There were 23 children present, nine (9) of whom are infants with five (5) staff. Appropriate ratios and supervision were observed. All indoor and outdoor activity space utilized for the children was inspected today. LPA informed Facility Representative Verenicia Chavez that staff are required to always maintain direct visual supervision of the children during indoor and outdoor activities.

When medications are on site, Facility Representative Verenicia Chavez stated they are stored in the office. A fully equipped first aid kit is in each classroom. There is an operational carbon monoxide detector on site located in each classroom. All required licensing documents were posted at the front entrance of the facility. Children are signed in and out of the facility via the Bright Wheel App.

LPA continued to tour the facility and measured all indoor and outdoor activity space. Total infant indoor activity space measured to be 1,325.00 square feet, which is sufficient to accommodate the requested capacity of 36 infants. LPA observed all indoor activity space to be complete with safe age-appropriate furniture and equipment, including sufficient cribs, napping cots for infants who can climb out of a crib, potty chairs, cubbies, bookshelves, and other activity supplies for the children. Toys are safe with no sharp edges, splinters, or points, nor made of small parts that can present a choking hazard. See LIC 809 Continuation...

FACILITY EVALUATION REPORT California law requires a public report of each licensing visit/inspection. This report is a record for the facility and the licensing agency. This report is available for public review; therefore, care is taken not to disclose personal or confidential information. Inquiries concerning the location, maintenance, and contents of these reports may be directed to the Licensing Program Analyst or Regional Office whose address and telephone number are listed on the front of this form.

DEFICIENCIES A deficiency is an instance of noncompliance with licensing requirements, including applicable statutes, regulations, interim licensing standards, operating standards, and written directives. Applicants/ licensees must be notified in writing of all licensing deficiencies. Deficiencies are listed on the left side of this form, and the applicable licensing requirement upon which the deficiency is identified. There are two types of deficiencies:
  • Type A deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, if not corrected, have a direct and immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care.
  • Type B deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, without correction, could become a risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care, a recordkeeping violation that could impact the care of said persons and/or protection of their resources, or a violation that could impact those services required to meet the needs of persons in care.

PLANS OF CORRECTION (POCs) The licensing agency is required to establish a reasonable length of time to correct a deficiency. In order to set the time, the licensing agency must take into consideration the seriousness of the violation, the number of persons in care involved, and the availability of equipment and personnel necessary to correct the violation. Applicants/licensees are requested to provide a specific plan for each violation on the right side of the form across from each deficiency. The more specific the plan, the less chance exists for any misunderstanding in setting time limits and reviewing corrections. The applicant/licensee who encounters problems beyond their control in completing the corrections within the specified time frame may request and may be granted an extension of the correction due date by the licensing agency.

CORRECTION NOTIFICATION The applicant/licensee is responsible for completing all corrections and promptly notifying the licensing agency of corrections. Applicants/licensees are advised to keep a dated copy of any correspondence sent to the licensing agency concerning corrections, or if corrections are telephoned to the licensing agency, the date, person contacted, and information given.

CIVIL PENALTIES The licensing agency is required by law to issue a Penalty Notice, when applicable, to all facilities holding a license issued by the licensing agency, or subject to licensure, except Certified Family Homes, Resource Families, and Foster Family Homes, or any governmental entity.

PENALTY NOTICE GIVEN The statement concerning civil penalties serves as a penalty notice on this Licensing Report and failure to correct cited licensing deficiencies will result in civil penalties. Applicants/ licensees are required to pay civil penalties when administrative appeals have been exhausted and in accordance with any payment arrangements made with the licensing agency.

APPEAL RIGHTS The applicant/licensee has a right without prejudice to discuss any disagreement in this report with the licensing agency concerning the proper application of licensing requirements. The applicant/ licensee may request a formal review by the licensing agency to amend or dismiss the notice of deficiency and/ or civil penalty. Requests for review shall be made in writing within 15 business days of receipt of a deficiency notification or civil penalty assessment. Licensing deficiencies may be appealed pursuant to the procedures in the LIC 9058 Applicant/Licensee Rights.

AGENCY REVIEW The licensing agency review of an appeal may be conducted based upon information provided in writing by the applicant/licensee. The applicant/licensee may request an office meeting to provide additional information. The applicant/licensee will be notified in writing of the results of the agency review within 60 business days of the date when all necessary information has been provided to the licensing agency.

EMAIL REQUIREMENT Adult Community Care Facilities, Residential Care Facilities for the Chronically Ill, and Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly are required to provide and maintain an active email address of record with the licensing agency.

Drinking water is available in the classrooms via a water pitcher, and the pitcher is refilled from filtered water dispensers located in the lobby.

Fire clearance was granted on August 18, 2026.

Infant seats are in good repair and trays lock onto chairs. Changing tables have at least 1” padding covered with moisture - resistant, washable material. Sides of the changing table are at least 3” high and the changing table is within arm’s reach of a sink. Diapering sink is not used for meal preparation or dishwashing. There are 14 cribs, and the cribs meet regulatory requirements. The crib area is separated from activity space via a room with a half wall dividers.

There are sufficient outdoor age-appropriate toys and play equipment available on the playground. The outdoor play has concrete and which is covered by rubber cushioning.
