Upon arrival, LPA met with Jennifer Rodriguez, Area Manager. There was a total of 54 children present in care with a total of 6 staff members (5 teachers and 1 aide). Facility is currently licensed to operate in Rooms 707, 804, 805 and auditorium, however, is currently only using 707 due to 804 and 805 being under construction. Auditorium is utilized for overflow. Per Health and Safety Code Sections 1596.806(a), (a)(1), (1)(2) and (d) this program is exempt from square footage, fencing, outdoor activity space, toilet and isolation requirements.

The program uses four sets of bathrooms (girls and boys) located in 400 building, 200 building, 600 building and auditorium/cafeteria areal, all which afford privacy. There is an operational carbon monoxide detector in Room 707 located on top of the refrigerator. Sign-in/out area is located in front of the Kid’s Care gate. Ms. Rodriguez was reminded to keep anything that reads, “Keep Out of Reach of Children” to be inaccessible to children. Ms. Rodriguez is reminded that any changes to the facility must be reported to and approved by Community Care Licensing.
