On March 6, 2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Van conducted an unannounced annual inspection and met with Director Nayeli Rangel. The purpose of the inspection was explained, and the director granted LPA access to the facility. This is a preschool center. At the time of inspection, 3 center staff members, a yoga instructor, and the director were supervising 18 children. The facility complies with the current staff-to-child ratios.

All staff present during the inspection had their criminal records verified through the CDSS Guardian Background Check site and were found eligible.

The days and operations hours are Monday - Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

The center uses manual sign-in and sign-out procedures. The binder was located by the main door. Upon review, it was found that out of 18 children present, only 10 parents or authorized representatives signed in. Additionally, parents or authorized representatives indicated only the sign-in time, some with initials but no actual signatures.

LPA and the director conducted a walkthrough of the Center to assess potential health and safety risks. The program operates out of one classroom. LPA observed the classroom to be sectioned into multiple areas. Areas includes a play area, an art area, and an eating area. The classroom is clean, orderly, and maintained at comfortable temperatures with adequate ventilation. Age-appropriate toys and learning materials were available, and all furniture appeared sturdy and in good condition. The Center is equipped with a centralized smoke alarm, a carbon monoxide detector, and a fully charged 2A:10 BC fire extinguisher.

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.

LPA observed that each child has a designated hook for personal belongings. Sleeping cots were properly stored when not in use. Emergency supplies were kept in locked storage areas to ensure they remained secure and inaccessible to children. Medications were stored in a locked metal box in the children's bathroom. Upon review, it was confirmed that parental consent was obtained. However, not all medications were in their original containers. LPA reminded the director to ensure all medications are in their original containers.

Disinfectants, cleaning solutions, poisons, and other hazardous materials were stored out of children’s reach. All accessible cabinets and drawers in the classrooms were checked and found free of hazardous items.

All children’s toilets and handwashing stations were operational and properly sanitized. A separate staff bathroom was also available on site. The director confirmed that no firearms were stored at the facility.

The center has an approved outdoor rotation scheduled waiver issued by the Department, allowing a maximum of 14 children to use the outdoor play areas at one time because the center does not meet the required outdoor square footage. During the inspection, staff were observed supervising 18 preschool-age children outside simultaneously. This exceeded the capacity allowed under the Department-issued waiver and showed noncompliance with the conditions outlined in the approved scheduled rotation plan.

The outdoor play area is well-maintained, clean, free of debris, and completely fenced. All gates are secured to prevent unsupervised access. There are no pools, spas, or other bodies of water present in the outdoor space. According to the director, the sandbox is inspected daily before children use it. LPA reminded the director that drinking water should be available and easily accessible.

The director stated that the center does not serve food; it only serves fruit. Children bring their own lunches and snacks from home. All observed solid waste containers had tight-fitting lids. Children also bring individual water bottles, and center has water available on site for refilling throughout the day.

The Director stated that the Center conducts fire and earthquake drills at least once every six months; the last drills were conducted on January 16, 2026.

LPA reviewed a sample of five children and all staff records during the inspection. Three out of five children’s files were complete and included required documents such as immunization records, admission agreements, emergency contact information, and personal rights forms. However, two other children were missing the Identification and Emergency Information form, or the parent/authorized representative had not signed it. Additionally, one child did not have any of the following Licensing forms signed by the parent/authorized representative: LIC 700, LIC 627, LIC 613A, LIC 995A

Staff files showed that all employees and individuals subject to background checks had received the appropriate criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions. All staff members held current CPR certifications, maintained required immunization records, and were up to date on mandated reporter training. The director’s and staff’s educational documentation confirmed completion of the required ECE units.

Assembly Bill (AB) 2370, Chapter 676, Statutes of 2018, requires all licensed Childcare 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.
