An application for a Large Family Child Care Home (FCCH) was submitted to the San Bruno Regional Office. The licensee provided proof of control of property.

Because the licensee rents/leases the home, proof of landlord notification is required. The LPA observed the Property Owner/Landlord Notification form (LIC 9151) that the licensee confirms was provided to the property owner/landlord. The licensee obtained a signed Property Owner/Landlord Consent form (LIC 9149).

If the licensee provides care for a 13th and 14th child of school age, the licensee must use form LIC 9150 to notify the parents or guardians of all enrolled children. The Emergency Disaster Plan (LIC 610), Parent Rights (LIC 995A), and License (once received) must be posted in an accessible location where parents can see them.

LPA went over the large licensee capacity limits with the licensee. LPA reminded the licensee, specifically including the requirement that, when no assistant provider is present, the licensee must adhere to the Small Family Child Care Home capacity requirements, which allow care for up to eight children.

Two adults (the licensee and her assistant) were present in the facility caring for two infants and one preschool-aged child. Both adults have fingerprint clearance on file. The facility was observed to be operating within the licensed capacity ratio requirements.

The indoor areas were clean, well-ventilated, and maintained at a comfortable temperature. Age-appropriate furniture, toys, and learning materials were available and in good condition.

The facility provides food for the children, including breakfast, lunch, and one snack. Plastic plates and utensils, and sippy cups are provided by the facility. Sippy cups are washed by hand.

The home was equipped with cribs and playpens designated for children’s naps. All sleep equipment appeared to be in good condition. The infant mattresses were found with fitted sheets. A milk bottle was observed inside C1’s playpen while C1 was sleeping, which is a violation, and the facility will receive a deficiency. LPA observed the door to the napping room was completely closed while two infants were sleeping, which is a violation, and the facility will receive a deficiency.

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 also informed licensee of the importance of checking for and removing any recalled infant devices on the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) website at https://www.cpsc.gov/ and recommended they register all infant devices with the CPSC to be notified of any recalls on their purchased equipment.
