On 02/07/2024 at 11:00 AM, an annual inspection was made to the facility by Licensing Program Analysts (LPA), N. Wheeler and K. Lynch. This program is operated by a public agency, and days/hours are 08:15 AM – 12:15 PM, Monday–Friday. The facility was toured at 11:00 AM inside and outside and the floor and yard plan submitted by the licensee were verified. Facility operates in one classroom. Facility representative and two staff were supervising 11 children and operating within the licensed capacity and ratio requirements. There are no pools or bodies of water on the premises. The outdoor activity space was cushioned with grass and free of hazards. Five children's records were reviewed at 11:45 AM. Three staff records were reviewed at 11:45 AM.

Assembly Bill (AB) 2370, Chapter 676, Statutes of 2018, requires all licensed Child Care Centers (CCCs) constructed before January 1, 2010, to test their water (used for drinking and food preparation) for lead contamination before January 1, 2023, and then every 5-years after the date of the first test. For childcare center licenses issued after July 1, 2022, the licensee shall test their water for lead within 180 days of licensure pursuant to Written Directives section 101700 (PIN 21-21.1- CCP). LPA verified that the lead testing was completed in accordance to the Written Directives outlined in PIN 21-21.1-CCP.
