On October 16, 2025, at 10:15 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Elimika Woods conducted an unannounced Annual Random Inspection and met with Director Lindsay Clow. LPA disclosed the purpose of the visit and toured the facility, both indoors and outdoors, to conduct a health and safety inspection. There were 11 preschool-age children present during the inspection and three (3) additional staff members on site. The facility operates Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM.

LPA reviewed facility records, which indicate that all individuals subject to a criminal record review have obtained a clearance or exemption and are associated with the facility. LPA conducted a census of the children, which matched the 11 signatures recorded on the sign-in sheet. At approximately 12:00 PM, LPA reviewed three (3) children’s files and three (3) staff files. All staff files contained the required documentation, including Health Screening and Employee Rights forms. All children’s files contained Personal Rights, Medical Consent, and Identification and Emergency Information forms. At least one opening and closing staff member holds a current CPR and First Aid certification.

At approximately 12:30 PM, LPA inspected two (2) of the four (4) classrooms and observed that the teacher-to-child ratio was in compliance. There were adequate play and learning materials available. The floors were clean, safe, and well maintained, and the furniture was appropriately sized for preschool-age children. The room temperature was comfortable and suitable for children in care. Classroom equipment was in good repair, and there was individual storage space available for each child’s belongings. The designated isolation area for ill children is located in the director’s office, away from other children in care.

LPA tested the facility’s smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and confirmed that they were functioning properly. The center has a working telephone, a pull-down fire alarm system, and multiple fully charged 3A40BC fire extinguishers throughout the facility, meeting standards established by the State Fire Marshal. Disaster drills are conducted at least once every six months, with the most recent drill conducted on April 5, 2025. All required postings were observed in a publicly accessible area.

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.

FOOD SERVICE AND STORAGE-This facility provides lunch and snacks for children in care. Weekly menus are posted at the facility. LPA observed areas with mini-refrigerators, which were clean and free of evidence of rodents. Food is protected from contamination, and per staff, any contaminated food is discarded immediately. LPA reminded the facility representative that all persons engaged in food preparation and service must observe proper personal hygiene and food service sanitation practices to protect food from contamination. All storage containers for solid waste were observed to have tight-fitting covers and were in good repair.

OUTDOOR PLAY OBSERVATIONS-At approximately 10:45 AM, LPA observed preschool-age children playing outdoors—running, jumping, and engaging in active play. The children appeared to be having fun and interacting positively. Two teachers were supervising the playground from different areas, maintaining appropriate visual supervision.

The outdoor play area includes multiple play structures—some with slides cushioned to absorb falls and others designed for climbing activities. The area has canopies and trees that provide adequate shade for children while playing. The playground is fully fenced and free from hazards, defects, or dangerous conditions. Outdoor play equipment is age-appropriate, clean, and in good repair, including bicycles, tricycles, a playhouse, sandbox, climbing equipment, benches, tables, chairs, and a swing set. The swing set is anchored securely to the ground with cushioning underneath to absorb falls. Staff bring children’s water cups outdoors to ensure they remain hydrated during play.



BATHROOMS AND SANITATION-LPA asked the director whether the staff bathroom is separate from the children’s bathrooms, and the director confirmed that it is. The children’s bathrooms are located inside the classrooms. LPA inspected and flushed all toilets in each bathroom to verify proper operation and ran water in the sinks to ensure the temperature did not get too hot for children. All sinks, toilets, and faucets were found to be in safe and sanitary operating condition during the inspection.


California Law requires Child Care Centers licensees to report unusual incidents or injuries to children in care to child's parents and to the Department of Social Services using the Unusual Incident/Injury form (LIC 624). Incidents must be reported within 24 hours by phone, fax, or electronic mail. The director was also reminded that Mandated Reporter Training ("General" and "Child Care Providers") is required for all staff and is to be renewed every 2 years by visiting www.mandatedreporterca.com.
