On January 18, 2024 at 9:00am Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Indira Loza and Janai McClain met with Director Malika Guergah to deliver an amended report dated February 7, 2023. Present during today's visit were 4 preschool age children and two fingerprint cleared staff.

On February 7, 2023 the facility was cited for not having the lead testing in the water complete by January 1, 2023. The facility was cited a Type B deficiency and has provided proof that they are exempt from testing due to the building being built after 2010. The facility appealed the citation, which was then overturned and dismissed.

Also on February 7, 2023, the facility was cited a Type A violation for having a partially qualified teacher fulfill the role of a Fully Qualified Teacher, and violating the Ratio regulation - CCR 101216.3(b)(1). The facility appealed the citation, which was reduced to a Type B deficiency. Today the facility will be issued a new citation for the ratio which will be a Type B deficiency.

See LIC809-D for the Type B Citation.

Exit interview conducted.
Report and Appeal Rights provided to Director Malika Guergah.
