25 | An annual required inspection was made to the facility by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Amy Strother. LPA first met assistants, S1 and S2 who stated that Licensee, Jackielyn Bausley (L1) was out dropping her children off to school. LPA met with L1 at 9:30am. L1 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.
During the inspection the home was toured inside and outside. During today’s visit, two assistants (S1 and S2) were supervising two preschool age children and operating within the licensed capacity and ratio requirements. L1 provided a current roster of children in care as required. LPA verified that the children present were listed on the roster. The facility’s operating hours are Monday – Sunday 12:00AM -11:59PM. The floor plan submitted by the licensee was reviewed and verified. The off-limits areas of the home are the entire upstairs level of the home, the garage, and the kitchen. Upstairs and the kitchen are made inaccessible by child safety gates and a lock on the garage door. The home appears to be clean and orderly and was at a comfortable indoor temperature. There were safe toys and equipment available for children. There is a working telephone in the home. Items which could pose a danger to children (such as detergents, cleaning compounds, medications, etc.) were observed to be stored out of the reach of children. Licensee stated that poisons are stored in the garage. The garage is locked with a dead bolt requiring a key to open. The fireplace has been made inaccessible. LPA observed a working smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector and a fire extinguisher that appeared to be charged, rated at least 2A10BC, in the home. LPA reminded L1 that fire extinguishers should be served annually. L1's extinguisher had last been served 11/2023. L1 stated that she will have it served this month. The licensee has conducted an emergency drill within the past six months; last drill was documented on 06/01/24. L1 stated that a drill is scheduled for 12/20/24.
