On 2/26/25, at 10:05 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPAs) Matthew Sapien and Gigi Reyes conducted an unannounced random inspection of the abovementioned Family Child Care Home (FCCH). LPAs met with Ana Torres, Licensee of the FCCH, and explained the nature and purpose of the inspection. The LPAs, in the company of Licensee, toured the interior and exterior of the FCCH. The FCCH is a 3-bedroom and 2 1/2 bathroom two-story residence. The FCCH utilizes the home's living room (converted day care room), downstairs bathroom, kitchen, and backyard. The remainder of the home is excluded from childcare services (3 bedrooms, 1 1/2 bathrooms, and garage). Importantly to note, the second story of the house is made inaccessible with a child safety gate and other areas are made inaccessible via locks. At the time of the inspection, 4 children were present, along with 1 staff assistant (cleared and associated).

LPAs observed the FCCH to be orderly and clean. The bathroom, utilized for childcare services, is clean, orderly, and free of toxins. Child safety locks were observed on cabinets. Some cleaning supplies are stored in the bathroom's cabinet beneath the sink. Additional cleaning compounds, sharps, and personal medication are stored in kitchen cabinets that are either locked or elevated. Currently, no children require medication. The Licensee also possesses a First Aid Kit for the FCCH.

LPAs observed age-appropriate books, toys, and other furnishings throughout the interior of the FCCH (converted day care room). There are storage compartments throughout the room that contain day care equipment and supplies.

LPAs observed appropriate licensing forms and documents posted prominently to a bulletin board in the backyard of the home. LPAs observed smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in the FCCH. At 10:27 AM, a smoke detector was tested, while at 10:23 AM a carbon monoxide detector was tested. Both detectors were found to be operational. (CONT. 809-C, Page 2)

LPAs also observed a regulation fire extinguisher in the FCCH, which was last purchased on 1/2/25. LPAs reminded the Licensee to service or purchase a regulation fire extinguisher annually. LPAs reviewed the FCCH's fire/disaster drill log. The most recent drill occurred on 10/9/24. Licensee informed LPAs that the FCCH conducts disaster drills every six months.

As previously stated, the backyard area is accessible for day care children. The FCCH's outdoor area is enclosed by wooden fencing throughout. The fence’s entry/exit points are secure. As is the case with the interior of the FCCH, the backyard has age-appropriate play structures, toys, and other equipment throughout the area that can afford for robust childcare services. LPAs also observed a basketball hoop. Licensee was reminded to replace toys and play equipment which start to degrade or are not in good repair. The footing of the exterior is made up of varying surfaces (natural grass, artificial turf, and stone pavement). Shade is provided by trees and house overhangs. Licensee attested to LPAs that children are always supervised when engaged in outside activity and that the area is inspected regularly prior to letting children outside.



LPAs reviewed children's records. The records are current, complete, and possessed emergency contact information and immunization records, among other relevant licensing documents. The Licensee's records were also reviewed. The Licensee's CPR/First Aid Training (EMSA approved), expiring on 9/7/26, and their Mandated Reporter Training, expiring on 9/17/26, is current and complete as are other relevant licensing documents and forms. Licensee was reminded to renew certifications and training prior to expirations. Licensee informed LPAs that there are no firearms or bodies of water present at the FCCH.

The Licensee does not currently provide Incidental Medical Services (IMS) or administer medication to children in care. IMS policy was discussed. For IMS information see PIN 22-02CCP. When any IMS is provided, a Plan for Providing IMS must be submitted to the Department. The following information regarding ADA was provided: US Department of Justice (USDOJ) toll-free ADA Information Line at (800) 514-0301 (voice) or (800) 514-0383 (TTY) and link to publication: Commonly Asked Questions about Child Care Centers and the ADA, available at: http://www.ada.gov/childqanda.htm.

LPAs discussed the safe sleep regulations with Licensee and discussed the Child Care Licensing Safe Sleep webpage as an additional resource at:https://www.cdss.ca.gov/inforesources/child-care-licensing/public-information-and-resources/safe-sleep. Through record review, LPAs verified that napping infants are checked every 15 minutes by the Licensee. (CONT. 809-C, Page 3)
