On 09/10/24, Licensing Program Manager (LPM), Cynthia Brannon and Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Anita Tristan, met with Director, Ariana Sederquist for an informal conference at the Fresno Regional Office.

The purpose of the informal was to discuss previous deficiency cited and discussed how Monte Vista Children Center will ensure compliance with Title 22, Child Care Regulations.

The following Type A violation was discussed:

6/12/24 – CCR 101229(a)1 Responsibility for Providing Care and Supervision: Two preschool children were able to push open a gate, leading to the parking lot. The gate is located in the outside play yard. The alarm did not sound a warning, and the two children were able to leave fenced area. Children in the outside play yard attempted to inform a substitute teacher, who did not listen to the children. A staff exited the building and the children ran to staff and proceeded to inform staff that two children were outside the fence, playing in the dirt, between the fence and tree. Staff immediately questioned the substitute teacher, who shrugged and did not know the children who were missing. Staff observed another staff getting into car and asked for assistance in finding the two missing children. The two children were found playing next to wrought iron fencing, next to a tree. Staff were interviewed, and the children were missing for an undetermined amount of time.

Licensee shall provide an updated written policy to Community Care Licensing Division by September 24, 2024. Updated policy to include taking a census by utilizing name to face and a check off list with staff initials on checking on the gate alarm is in good working condition. These methods are to be utilized to assist in preventing children from leaving the facility without adult supervision.

Today, licensee was informed that any further repeats of the above deficiencies may result in a Non-Compliance Conference and possible referral to the Legal Division for Administrative Action. Facility will be placed on the required visit list. Licensee volunteered to participate with TSP.

Licensee will stay in compliance with Title 22 regulations at all times. A copy of this report and appeal rights were provided to director, Ariana Sederquist. No deficiencies were cited during today’s Office Visit.
