On June 5, 2025 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Giovani Gonzalez conducted an unannounced inspection at the above-mentioned Family Child Care Home (FCCH) . LPA met with licensee Yesenia Michel and informed them the purpose of the inspection. At the time of the inspection 5 children were present.

The investigation included 2 inspections, record review and interviews. The allegation of Personal Rights - Provider left day care child unattended was corroborated. An interview with the licensee revealed Child 1 (C!) was left unattended by the provider at Child 2's (C2) elementary school. Further, an interview with Adult (A1) revealed C1 went to the elementary school's office stating they were left behind by their baby sitter. LPA reviewed journal entries from the Santa Maria Police Department which corroborated the child was left unattended as well.
