32 | There is one fireplace in the living room, made inaccessible with a metal screen and glass doors. The fireplace will not be used during daycare hours. The home has a functioning fire extinguisher, smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector, and appropriate heating and ventilation for safety and comfort.
The home is a single-story residence with no stairs. Age-appropriate toys and safe play equipment were observed. A working telephone is available, and the phone number on file was confirmed to be accurate and verified as (209) 484-8987.
The licensee ensures children in care are supervised at all times and understands that children shall never be left unattended in parked vehicles. The outdoor play area in the backyard is fully fenced and free of hazards. The license capacity is being maintained as specified on the license.
LPA reviewed a sample of children's files and found them to be complete, with all required emergency information present. The licensee’s Mandated Reporter Training is current and valid through 09/14/2025. The CPR/First Aid certification is valid through September 2025. Records indicate that all employees and volunteers have immunization documentation on file for influenza, pertussis, and measles.
LPA discussed the Community Care Licensing website at www.ccld.ca.gov, which provides access to forms, regulations, Provider Information Notices (PINs), and quarterly updates. Reporting requirements under Section 102416.2 were reviewed.
Licensee Connie Vasquez was reminded that all adults age 18 and older residing or working in the home, including employees and volunteers (unless otherwise exempt under Health and Safety Code section 1596.871), must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer an existing clearance prior to being present in the licensed Family Child Care Home. A civil penalty of $100 per day, per person, for up to 5 days (or up to 30 days for repeat violations) may be assessed for non-compliance.
LPA discussed Safe Sleep Regulations and referred the licensee to the Safe Sleep webpage at https://www.cdss.ca.gov/inforesources/child-care-licensing/public-information-and-resources/safe-sleep for additional guidance. LPA also recommended that the licensee regularly check the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) website at www.cpsc.gov for recalled infant products and register infant equipment to receive recall notifications.
