On 11/19/24, at 10:45 AM, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Shane Loftus and Elvin Baddley conducted an unannounced Annual Random inspection the above-mentioned Child Care Center (CCC). LPAs met with Valerie Mason-Gale, Site Supervisor of the CCC and explained the purpose of the inspection. LPAs, in the company of Site Supervisor, toured the interior and exterior of the CCC. The CCC operates out of a portable classroom on the grounds of Bishop Elementary School. The CCC's hours of operation are 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Monday - Friday, with an AM Program from 7:00 AM -8:20 AM and a PM Program from 2:50 PM- 6:00 PM. It should be noted that Site Supervisor (Valerie Mason-Gale), Assistant (Maddie Ptacek), and no children were present during the time of inspection.

The classroom of the CCC is organized and clean. The classroom has age-appropriate furnishings for children in care. The classroom has an operable refrigerator which contains food items consumed by the CCC's children. Food items in the CCC's refrigerator are labeled. The CCC provides mid-day snacks as needed. LPAs observed a snack menu posted along with required notices and documents on the classroom's walls. LPAs reviewed children's In/Out forms and found the arrival times of children as well as the departure times. The signature of authorized representatives is also noted. There are available drinking water fountains for children outside the classroom.

Assembly Bill (AB) 2370, Chapter 676, Statutes of 2018, requires all licensed Child Care Centers (CCCs) constructed before January 1, 2010, to test their water (used for drinking and food preparation) for lead contamination before January 1, 2023, and then every 5-years after the date of the first test. For child care center licenses issued after July 1, 2022, the licensee shall test their water for lead within 180 days of licensure pursuant to Written Directives section 101700 (PIN 21-21.1- CCP). LPAs verified that the lead testing was completed in accordance to the Written Directives outlined in PIN 21-21.1-CCP.
