On 08/15/2023, Licensing Program Analysts (LPA) Nancy Her and Claribel Soto conducted a case management inspection and met with Center Director, Ernestina Flores. LPAs reviewed the reason of the inspection and a tour of the center was conducted both inside and outside. This is a decrease of capacity application and applicant is requesting 14 school age children ages 6-12. This facility will operate from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Friday. This program will operate in one classroom. Applicant is aware to contact the Fresno Community Care Licensing for a change in classrooms and/or change in capacity.

Assembly Bill 2370, Chapter 676, Statutes of 2018 requires all Child Care Centers (CCCs) that are located in buildings constructed before January 1, 2010 to test their drinking water for lead contamination by January 1, 2023 and every 5 years thereafter. This facility has provided evidence of completed water testing for samples collected on 07/5/2022 with no action level exceedances noted.

The classroom was observed to be clean and free of toxins. LPA observed that the furniture and equipment appeared to be safe and in good condition. The shelving units are anchored to prevent tipping onto children in care. There are enough tables, cubbies, chairs, mats and plenty of toys for children to play. LPA also reminded Center Director to not store anything on top of high bookcases that could potentially fall on children. There are working combination smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in classrooms, located on the ceiling.

LPA reviewed with Center Director, Ernestina Flores, that any future changes to the classrooms are required to ensure that furniture does not tip over on to children, the furniture are to be anchored or situated that tipping does not occur. Classroom changes of furniture shall be situated that 100% visual supervision is always provided to children in care. There is a restroom in the classroom with one toilet and one sink.

Room measurements were taken and reviewed with Center Director, Ernestina Flores. The total inside school age area measured to an approximate 380 square feet which will only accommodate a capacity of 10 school age children at a time. There is adequate storage space available for children's belongings in the classroom. Center Director understands that children's equipment needs to match the capacity she is licensed for. Toys and equipment appear to be age appropriate. There is a total of 1 toilet and 1 sinks/hand washing fixtures which will accommodate the requested capacity of 14 preschool children.
