Licensee was reminded that all adults 18 and over living or working in the home, 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.

A health and safety inspection was conducted in all areas accessible to children. The off-limits areas in the home include the attached back house, the backyard, the side yards on both sides of the house, the master bedroom, and the son's upstairs bedroom. The entire upstairs is inaccessible by a closed and locked door. The backyard is inaccessible by metal fences that disable access to the side yards as well.
