25 | A Pre-licensing inspection was conducted today by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Leticia Rosales-Meza. The applicant is Spanish speaking. The applicant is requesting a license for a capacity of 8 children. Services will be available Monday through Friday, 4:30 AM-5:30 PM. The applicant understands that 24hr consecutive care is prohibited. The residence is a four bedroom one bath mobile home. There are two adults living in the home. Applicant was reminded that all adults 18 and over living in the home, persons who provide care and supervision to children, and staff who have contact with children, 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.
Because the applicant rents/leases the home, proof of landlord notification is required. The LPA observed the Property Owner/Landlord Notification form (LIC9151) that the applicant confirms was provided to the property owner/landlord. The applicant obtained a signed Property Owner/Landlord Consent form (LIC 9149).
The floor and yard plans are verified. The children will have access to the living room, family room, one bedroom #4, and hallway bathroom. The "off limits" areas include the home's three bedrooms #1, #2, #3, kitchen and dining room. These areas have been made inaccessible by means of two secured child safety gates, door knob slip covers, and chain lock. The home appears to be clean and orderly at this time and will remain so during childcare hours. There is a working telephone in the home. The sharp knives, cleaning supplies, medicines, will be stored out of the reach of children. There were no firearms and ammunition in the home at the time of this inspection. Applicant stated there are no poisons at this time. The requirement that poisons be stored in a space locked with a key lock/combination lock is reviewed. First Aid supplies will be maintained at the facility. The children in care will have access to age appropriate toys and equipment. The home is equipped with a working smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector and a fire extinguisher rated at least 2A10BC.
