On January 3, 2024, at 9:40am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Laura Chavez conducted an unannounced complaint inspection and met with licensee's assistant Daniela Ferreyra (A1). It was alleged that the licensee is not present in the home for the required amount of time while the daycare is operating, specifically, the licensee is frequently absent for weeks at a time while on vacation. A1 admitted that the licensee has been out of the country on vacation for approximately three weeks. During the licensee's absence A1 stated that she is providing care to children enrolled.

Based on the evidence obtained, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the allegation of the licensee not being present in the home the required amount of time while the day care is operating is found to be substantiated. California Code of Regulations,102417(a), is cited on the attached LIC 9099D.
