On 10/09/2025, at 8:26 AM PST, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Seena Parsapour conducted an unannounced Annual/Random inspection of the above-mentioned Family Child Care Home (FCCH). LPA met with licensee Monica Gonzalez. LPA explained to licensee the purpose of the inspection and, in the company of the Licensee, toured the interior and exterior of the FCCH. For daycare purposes, the FCCH uses the living room area (main daycare room/playroom), dining area, (1) bathroom, and backyard area. The remainder of the FCCH is off-limits for daycare purposes. LPA notes that the home is a single story, four (4) bedroom, three (3) bathroom home, and child safety gates are used to enforce off-limits areas. At the time of the inspection, LPA observed three (3) assistants, who were the licensee’s husband, mother in law, and father in law, as well as five (5) children in care. LPA notes that one of the assistants (not present at the time of the inspection) is cleared & associated to the FCCH under the name Maria Torres, but has changed her name to Fabiola Marin De Torres. LPA reviewed photographs of this assistant’s CA driver’s license, issued under her new name, as well as her USA passport. LPA obtained and reviewed a written declaration, LIC 855 (SP), from the assistant explaining the situation, complete with her date of birth & current home address listed. As LPA does not speak Spanish, the LIC 855 (SP) was translated to English by the licensee.

LPA observed family medications, cleaning supplies and other toxins, as well as knives & other sharp objects stored in areas inaccessible to children in care. The bathroom for the FCCH was observed to be clean and hazard-free. Toys, furniture and equipment observed in the FCCH were age appropriate. LPA observed required licensing forms and documents posted on a bulletin board near the dining area. LPA observed a dual smoke & carbon monoxide detector in the hallway of the FCCH, which was tested at 9:43AM and found to be operational. The FCCH has a regulation fire extinguisher (3A40BC) that was purchased on today’s date, 10/09/2025. LPA reminded the Licensee to either service or purchase a regulation fire extinguisher annually.

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 backyard area is accessible for daycare purposes, and is fully enclosed, with footing consisting of concrete and cushioned rubber mats, and shade for the children’s comfort is provided by the home building and sun sails. LPA reminded Licensee to replace toys and play equipment when such items begin to degrade or are not in good repair. LPA observed no bodies of water on site, and confirmed this was the case with Licensee.

At 9:23AM PST, by observation, LPA discovered that a changing station was affixed to the top of the "pack 'n play" style crib located against the wall next to the television in the living room area, with Child #01 (C1) inside of the crib standing up. LPA instructed licensee to detach and remove the changing station from the top of the crib, and informed licensee of CCR 102425(b)(3), which asserts that there shall be no objects hanging above or attached to the side of the crib. LPA observed licensee correct this deficiency on-site, at 9:24AM PST.



Of the five children present at the time of the inspection, all five children’s records were reviewed and were found to be current & complete. The Licensee’s records were reviewed, and were found to be current and complete, with CPR & First Aid training completed on 6/13/2025, and Mandated Reporter training completed 6/19/2024. LPA reviewed records for the three assistants present at the time of the inspection. At 11:46AM PST, during file review & after interviewing the licensee, LPA discovered that currrent AB1207 compliant Mandated Reporter Training Certification was not on file for one of the assistants (the licensee's father-in-law). The assistants’ records were found otherwise to be current & complete. LPA notes the most recent disaster drill was conducted on 6/27/2025. LPA reminded licensee of the requirement to conduct & document such drills every 6 months. Licensee states there are no firearms or ammunition stored on site.
