A required inspection was made to the facility by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Glenn Ouye. LPA met with facility representative, Site Supervisor, Elizabeth Wattles. Facility representative was reminded that all adults 18 and over, 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 Child Care Center. 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.

This Vallejo City Unified School District Preschool Program is a Title 5 funded program. The operating hours are currently a half day program from 8:45am to 11:45am, Monday through Friday. This preschool program operates in a single open floor plan classroom. The facility was toured inside and outside, and the floor and yard plan submitted by the licensee were verified. Sign in/out records were reviewed and in compliance. Items which could pose a danger to children (such as detergents, cleaning compounds and medications) were observed to be inaccessible to children. The director stated there are no poisons in the facility, and none were observed during this inspection. LPA observed the toys, floors, desks and other equipment and surfaces are clean, toxic free, safe, and in good condition.
