25 | On 09/17/2024 a Case Management Inspection was conducted by LPA German Negrete who met with the Licensee Francisca Barron, LPA advised the purpose of today's inspection is to complete a case management incident report, due to a incident that was self reported to the Department on 7/12/2024. LPA observed Licensee and assistant providing care to 3 children and 3 infants. LPA requested a tour of the home. Licensee escorted LPA through the home inside and outside.
LPA visited the home on 8/9/2024 and interviewed Licensee, and Licensee stated how on the day of the incident Licensee departed from the Family Child Care Home(FCCH) with children in care to pick up Licensee’s own children from summer camp. Licensee arrived at the aforementioned FCCH with 5 day-care children and 3 of her own children(8 children total) . Upon arrival parents began picking up children, Licensee went inside the home and assisted parents during pick up. According to Licensee, during this time Child #1 was left unattended in a parked vehicle for approximately 5 minutes. As parents arrived and then another arrived, Licensee assisted daycare children for pick up.
During the course of the investigation LPA reviewed children files, LPA conducted staff interview, parent interviews, and LPA reviewed children sign in and sign out sheets.
Parent interviews revealed most parents would recommend this day care. Also most parents stated they approve the care and supervision. Furthermore all parents interviewed stated , when conducting pick up, the front door has always been closed and or locked.
LPA reviewed the LIC624(unusual Incident report) which was received via email on 7/12/2024.
Through the aforementioned LIC624, and the telephone intake report that was completed on 7/12/2024, LPA was able to cross reference both reports(LIC624, intake report) with parent statements. and LPA confirmed the licensee did leave Child#1 in a locked parked van. Also the department determined the front door was closed, therefore the Licensee could not observe the parked van where the child was inside and unsupervised. And due to these details the Department has found Licensee in Violation of Title 22 C.C.R Section 102417 (k)(1).
