25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Jennifer “Jen” Beehler, met with Antoni, Stephanie, for an unannounced Required- Annual Inspection. LPA was granted access to the exterior of the home by the Helper and licensee was called. Licensee joined five minutes later. LPA toured the exterior of the home and part of the garage with the staff person. Upon arrival, there were 5 children (preschool age) and 3 staff present, which is compliant with the home license capacity and ratio requirements. LPA observed none of the required postings near the entrance of the day care. LPA asked licensee if they were posted elsewhere and she stated they were not posted anywhere. LPA reminded licensee that Parent's Rights Pub and facility license should always be posted near the door. Hours of operation for the facility are Monday – Friday, 08:00AM-01:00PM. There are no active waivers.
Licensee states that she is the only adult living in the home. Licensee was reminded that all adults 18 and over living or working in the home, including employees and volunteers, except as specified in Health and Safety Code section 1596.871, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a licensed Family Child Care Home. A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day for a maximum of 5 days or, if the penalty is for a repeat violation, for a maximum of 30 days per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.
Licensee did not have an LIC9040 completed, but did have a roster available on her laptop. LPA printed a Roster for licensee and asked her to email a copy of her roster for records. Licensee provided a fire/disaster drill log during today's inspection. The last fire/disaster drill was conducted on 10/17/2024, which is compliant with the six-month requirement for homes. LPA observed a 2A10BC fire extinguisher but it had not been serviced since 1/14/2021 which is not compliant with Fire Marshall regulations. LPA reminded licensee that a fire extinguisher must be serviced each year or replaced. LPA tested the CO2 detector in the bathroom hallway and it did not work. Licensee located a working smoke detector/carbon monoxide detector and installed it in the hallway/laundry room.
