Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Romy Castanon conducted a required annual visit. LPA and Director Nicole Carreon toured the inside and outside of the facility. The floor and yard plan (LIC 999) were verified. Census was taken in individual classrooms 1-4. The census observed was 8 infants with 6 staff in Infant Room 1-3. LPA observed 8 toddlers with 2 staff in Room 4. During the inspection it was determined the facility is operating within its licensed capacity and within compliance of staffing ratios. A review of the Facility Personnel Report Summary on this date indicates all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions.

During the inspection of the indoor activity space, items which could pose a danger to children (detergents, cleaning compounds, and medications) were observed to be stored out of the reach of children locked in cabinets. Poisons/Hazardous Items are not kept on the premises. All storage containers for solid waste, including moveable bins, have tight fitting covers that are kept on, and are in good repair. The Director takes measures to keep the facility free of flies, other insects and rodents. Bottles, dishes and containers of food brought by the infant’s authorized representative are labeled with the infant’s name and current date. Food is prepared on site; breakfast, lunch and snacks are provided. Parents provide their own purees for infants. Food prep areas were clean and sanitary. Food is properly stored and labeled. Menus were posted where they could be reviewed by parents. Floors, equipment, and furniture were clean and were observed to be in good repair and free of sharp edges. There are gallons of filtered water available to children indoors and outdoors via sippy cups with the child’s name on it and paper cups. Infant changing tables are placed within arm’s reach of a sink. The facility has age-appropriate furniture and equipment including, but no limited to cribs, cots, changing table and feeding chairs.

Beginning September 1, 2016, Health and Safety (H&S) 1597.622 states, a person shall not be employed or volunteer at a childcare center if he or she has not been immunized against influenza, pertussis, and measles. Proof of immunization against pertussis and measles for 5 staff was reviewed and within compliance. Beginning March 31, 2018, H&S Code 1596.8662 requires all directors and employees to complete mandated reporting training, and to renew the training every two years. All 5 staff who had Mandated Reporter Training were completed and none were expired. Director was advised for 1 staff to utilize the state website for training. One staff present possesses current EMSA approved Pediatric CPR/First Aid certifications, which expires 08/2023.

Children's records were reviewed, and there was a separate, complete and current record for each child. A random sample of 5 children's files were reviewed for documentation of the child’s name, address, and telephone number of the child’s authorized representative and of relatives or others that can assume responsibility for the child if the authorized representative cannot be reached when necessary (LIC 700) and a medical assessment. LPA Castanon reviewed the napping log for infants up to 24 months and LIC9227 Infant Safe Sleep Plan for infants up to 12 months. In the areas reviewed the children’s files were found to be in full compliance. Facility’s sign in/out procedure is done digitally through electronic application called ProCare.
