On May 21, 2025 at approximately 8:00AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Katie Krenn conducted an unannounced annual visit. During today’s visit, LPA met with Director, June Keo and explained the purpose of the visit to her. During today's inspection LPA observed 22 preschool children and five teachers.

LPA reviewed the sign in sheet where parents sign their children in and out of the facility. LPA confirmed that all three teachers present had obtained criminal record clearances. The facility remains within its capacity limits and meets the required ratios for today’s visit.

The facilities hours of operation are Monday - Friday from 7:30AM - 5:30PM. The facility currently does not take drop-ins. LPA observed that all required documents: such as the facility license, notification of parents’ rights, car seat laws, personal rights, earthquake checklist, and emergency disaster plan, were displayed in a prominent place.

LPA observed that the license numbers were not included on the signs out front. LPA discussed options for adding the numbers to the existing signs. Director said she understood and would add the license numbers to the signs.

The most recent emergency disaster drill was conducted in February 2025, and the LPA observed that it was documented. LPA reviewed the emergency disaster drill log and found that drills were conducted at least once every six months.

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.

The facility had a first aid kit, a smoke/carbon monoxide detector, a charged fire extinguisher, and an emergency disaster backpack kit. LPA did not test the smoke/carbon monoxide detectors, because they are a part of an integrated system that is checked by the fire department.

The LPA inspected the indoor and outdoor areas for health and safety hazards. The facility was clean, safe, and well-maintained. Disinfectants, cleaning solutions, and poisons were securely stored out of children's reach, and all accessible cabinets and drawers in the classrooms were free of hazardous materials.

LPA observed that the four classrooms had age-appropriate toys, furniture, educational materials, and designated storage space for each child, which included hooks and cubby space, all of which were clearly labeled for each child. LPA did not observe any accessible electrical outlets. There was a bathroom with two child sized toilets and two child level sinks. The facility had a changing table near a sink.

The outdoor playground has a fence. The play equipment is in good condition and does not have sharp, loose, or pointed parts. The areas around and under climbing equipment and slides are cushioned with rubber. There are no pools, spas, or bodies of water on the property. Each child has their own water bottle which is filled at the facility from purchased distilled water jugs. The water bottles are carried in a caddy so they can be brought outside during outdoor play and accessible to the children.

The preschool program does not currently provide lunch for the children. The families provide lunches for their children. LPA observed that each child had lunch boxes in their designated storage space. The facility does provide snack in the morning and afternoon. LPA saw that posted menus included healthy options such as fresh fruits and whole grains.

The facility offers mats for children to rest or nap. Per the director, each child has their own. Per the director, bedding is provided from home and goes home with children on Fridays for laundering.

LPA reviewed the files of five children, confirming that their emergency contact and medical information were complete and in order. LPA observed that a child needed to have an update in their vaccination records. LPA reminded the director that it is important to remind parents to submit updated vaccination records.
