During the inspection there was a census of ten children in care being supervised by the licensee and assistant. Ages of children were verified during file review to ensure ratio/capacity were adhered to. Facility hours of operating are 7 days a week from 8:30 AM-5:00 PM
All individuals subject to criminal background review have obtained a criminal record clearance. Licensee was reminded that all adults 18 and over living or working in the home, including employees and volunteers, except as specified in Health and Safety Code section 1596.871, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a licensed Family Child Care Home. A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day for a maximum of 5 days or, if the penalty is for a repeat violation, for a maximum of 30 days per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.
