On 10/29/2025, at 10:30 AM PST, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Seena Parsapour made an unannounced inspection to the abovementioned Family Child Care Home (FCCH) to deliver the findings and complete the investigation with regard to the above allegation. LPA met with Maribel Aguilar, Licensee of the FCCH. LPA notes five (5) children and one (1) assistant are present at the time of the inspection.

The allegation that Licensee did not report the unusual incident to Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) was investigated by LPA Parsapour. The investigation included record reviews, and interviews with the Licensee, complainant, and parents of children currently enrolled at the FCCH. The investigation revealed that on 09/23/2025, a child in care sustained a head injury resulting in visible bruising. Record reviews and interviews with the aforementioned parties indicated that the incident was not reported to CCLD within the required timeframe. The Licensee failed to notify the Department by telephone or fax within 24 hours and did not submit a written report (LIC624B) within seven days of the occurrence, as required by Title 22, California Code of Regulations, Section 102416.2(b).
