Licensing Program Analyst Erwina Pascual-Golamco and Stephanie Piring (LPAs) met with Director Kiana Komentani, for an unannounced annual inspection of this preschool facility. LPA toured the facility, including all activity and classroom spaces, restrooms, and outdoor play area. Census included 67 children in care with 14 staff. Director was reminded never to exceed the conditions, limitations and capacity specified on the license. Facility hours of operation are 7:00 AM to 6:000 PM, Monday to Friday

Director was reminded that all adults 18 and over, 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 Child Care Center. 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.

Classrooms observed are clean, including the carpets and floor. Chemicals were kept inaccessible to children. Playground equipment and surfaces were inspected and are in good condition with enough resilient material under climbing structures to absorb a fall. Uncontaminated drinking water was readily available to children both indoors and outdoors. LPA observed a posted menu and facility provides AM and PM snack and children bring their own lunches.

Bathrooms were sanitary and all sinks and toilets were in operating condition. There are no firearms or bodies of water on the premises and the facility has at least one functioning smoke and carbon monoxide detector. LPA observed all required licensing documentation was posted for parental review. LPA observed that parents are signing their children in and out of the center.
