At 10:30am on 9/25/2024, Licensing Program Manager (LPM) Seychelle De Luca and Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Matthew Gallo met with Director Paolo Sarmiento.

LPM De Luca defined the difference between a non-compliance conference and an informal meeting. LPM advised that the purpose of today’s meeting is to help the facility staff gain compliance with regulations.

Today’s informal meeting is to discuss Type A citations issued from 6/15/2023 to 8/29/2024 regarding the following deficiencies:

-On 6/15/2023, 4/3/2024, and 8/29/2024, the facility was cited for staff not having criminal background clearances prior to presence in the facility.

-On 6/15/2023, 4/3/2024, 7/11/2024, and 8/29/2024, the facility was cited for staff not having the required qualifications to act as teachers.

-On 5/2/2024 and 8/20/2024, the facility was cited for not meeting required teacher-child ratios.

-On 4/11/2024 and 8/20/2024, the facility was cited for not storing medication according to regulations.

-On 5/2/2024, the facility was cited for exceeding the terms and conditions of their license by providing care to a child whose age did not fall within the licensed age range for the preschool.

-On 4/3/2024, the facility was cited for lack of supervision.

LPA and LPM reviewed regulations regarding criminal background clearance, teacher qualifications, ratio, storage of medication, terms and conditions of a license, and lack of supervision. LPM discussed using the Department website (ccld.ca.gov) for child care updates, forms, legislation, and regulation information. LPM suggested that licensee can view information videos at www.ccld.childcarevideos.org. Report continues on 809-C
