On 01/15/2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Valerie Mireles met with Director Sonja Stephens for an unannounced Case Management inspection. A complete file review was conducted prior to today's inspection. LPA toured the facility inside and a census was taken. There were 55 children separated into three classrooms. The purpose of today's inspection was to address an unusual incident that took place at the facility on 12/09/2025.

An Unusual Incident Report was submitted to the Fresno Community Care Licensing (CCL) Office regarding an incident that occurred, on 12/09/2025, involving a daycare child (Child #1) that sustained an injury to the right thumb when a sensory table lid slipped from Staff #1’s hand while picking it up to close the table. Child #1 reached for a toy underneath the table when another child bumped into Staff #1, causing the lid to fall onto Child #1’s hand.

On 01/15/2026, LPA spoke with the Staff #1, who reported that as the lid was being lifted, Child #1 reached for a toy, when the lid fell smashing down on Child #1’s right thumb. Staff #1 comforted Child #1, cleaned the area, applied an ice pack and a bandage. Child #1 continued to play the remainder of the day without complaining of pain and the parent was notified of the incident during pickup. According to the Director, Child #1 returned to daycare the following day and played normally; however, in the evening at home, the parent observed swelling and bruising to Child #1’s right thumb area, and on 12/11/2025, took Child #1 to their physician. The parent verbally reported that Child #1 sustained a fracture to the right thumb and Child #1 returned with no special accommodations required or doctors note; however, did have a cast applied to the right hand. Parent requested assistance during clothing application.

FACILITY EVALUATION REPORT California law requires a public report of each licensing visit/inspection. This report is a record for the facility and the licensing agency. This report is available for public review; therefore, care is taken not to disclose personal or confidential information. Inquiries concerning the location, maintenance, and contents of these reports may be directed to the Licensing Program Analyst or Regional Office whose address and telephone number are listed on the front of this form.

DEFICIENCIES A deficiency is an instance of noncompliance with licensing requirements, including applicable statutes, regulations, interim licensing standards, operating standards, and written directives. Applicants/ licensees must be notified in writing of all licensing deficiencies. Deficiencies are listed on the left side of this form, and the applicable licensing requirement upon which the deficiency is identified. There are two types of deficiencies:
  • Type A deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, if not corrected, have a direct and immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care.
  • Type B deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, without correction, could become a risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care, a recordkeeping violation that could impact the care of said persons and/or protection of their resources, or a violation that could impact those services required to meet the needs of persons in care.

PLANS OF CORRECTION (POCs) The licensing agency is required to establish a reasonable length of time to correct a deficiency. In order to set the time, the licensing agency must take into consideration the seriousness of the violation, the number of persons in care involved, and the availability of equipment and personnel necessary to correct the violation. Applicants/licensees are requested to provide a specific plan for each violation on the right side of the form across from each deficiency. The more specific the plan, the less chance exists for any misunderstanding in setting time limits and reviewing corrections. The applicant/licensee who encounters problems beyond their control in completing the corrections within the specified time frame may request and may be granted an extension of the correction due date by the licensing agency.

CORRECTION NOTIFICATION The applicant/licensee is responsible for completing all corrections and promptly notifying the licensing agency of corrections. Applicants/licensees are advised to keep a dated copy of any correspondence sent to the licensing agency concerning corrections, or if corrections are telephoned to the licensing agency, the date, person contacted, and information given.

CIVIL PENALTIES The licensing agency is required by law to issue a Penalty Notice, when applicable, to all facilities holding a license issued by the licensing agency, or subject to licensure, except Certified Family Homes, Resource Families, and Foster Family Homes, or any governmental entity.

PENALTY NOTICE GIVEN The statement concerning civil penalties serves as a penalty notice on this Licensing Report and failure to correct cited licensing deficiencies will result in civil penalties. Applicants/ licensees are required to pay civil penalties when administrative appeals have been exhausted and in accordance with any payment arrangements made with the licensing agency.

APPEAL RIGHTS The applicant/licensee has a right without prejudice to discuss any disagreement in this report with the licensing agency concerning the proper application of licensing requirements. The applicant/ licensee may request a formal review by the licensing agency to amend or dismiss the notice of deficiency and/ or civil penalty. Requests for review shall be made in writing within 15 business days of receipt of a deficiency notification or civil penalty assessment. Licensing deficiencies may be appealed pursuant to the procedures in the LIC 9058 Applicant/Licensee Rights.

AGENCY REVIEW The licensing agency review of an appeal may be conducted based upon information provided in writing by the applicant/licensee. The applicant/licensee may request an office meeting to provide additional information. The applicant/licensee will be notified in writing of the results of the agency review within 60 business days of the date when all necessary information has been provided to the licensing agency.

EMAIL REQUIREMENT Adult Community Care Facilities, Residential Care Facilities for the Chronically Ill, and Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly are required to provide and maintain an active email address of record with the licensing agency.

On 01/15/2026, LPA observed the sensory table where the incident took place. The sensory table was inspected and was in good condition with no visible defects. The sensory table lid was placed behind the table, where Director and Staff #1 reported that it remains during daycare hours. The Director reported that the sensory table lid is not moved while children are in care. At the time of the incident there were two teachers and approximately 23 children present in the classroom where the incident occurred; therefore, adequate supervision was in place. LPA obtained facility records, reviewed staff and child files.

Based on the information obtained, LPA determined staff handled the incident correctly and reporting requirements were met. After interviewing staff and reviewing facility records, LPAs determined facility staff took appropriate measures to address the child’s injury, following proper policies and procedures and no regulations were violated.

Per the California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1, no deficiency was cited during today’s inspection. Exit interview conducted with the Director Sonja Stephens.
