On 02/18/2026, at 9:30 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Shane Loftus conducted an unannounced Annual/Random Inspection of the above-mentioned Child Care Center (CCC). LPA met with Kathryn Dean, Director of the CCC and explained the purpose of the inspection. LPA, in the company of Director toured the interior and exterior of the CCC. The CCC operates from 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM, Monday through Friday. The preschool is on the grounds of Cal Lutheran University and uses four classrooms for childcare. LPA notes the CCC has a toddler option and is a combined center with an infant program/license. LPA observed forty-one (41) children on site along with eight (8) staff (cleared and associated) providing care and supervision.

LPA observed the classrooms of the CCC to be clean and organized. Each classroom has age-appropriate toys and furnishings. Disinfectants, cleaning solutions, sharps, and medication are in areas which are inaccessible to children in care. Each classroom has a carbon monoxide detector. A carbon monoxide detector in the CCC's Toddler room was tested at 11:20 AM and found to be operable. LPA observed the CCC's restrooms to be in safe and sanitary operating condition. LPA observed the Toddler classroom to have a changing table within arm’s reach of a sink. The CCC has operable refrigerators throughout the CCC for food storage. LPA observed the refrigerator in the Toddler classroom to have milk that is labeled for each child. Director informed LPA that the CCC provides snack while children in care bring lunch from home. Water is provided for children in care both inside and in the outdoor play areas. Continued on 809-C

FACILITY EVALUATION REPORT California law requires a public report of each licensing visit/inspection. This report is a record for the facility and the licensing agency. This report is available for public review; therefore, care is taken not to disclose personal or confidential information. Inquiries concerning the location, maintenance, and contents of these reports may be directed to the Licensing Program Analyst or Regional Office whose address and telephone number are listed on the front of this form.

DEFICIENCIES A deficiency is an instance of noncompliance with licensing requirements, including applicable statutes, regulations, interim licensing standards, operating standards, and written directives. Applicants/ licensees must be notified in writing of all licensing deficiencies. Deficiencies are listed on the left side of this form, and the applicable licensing requirement upon which the deficiency is identified. There are two types of deficiencies:
  • Type A deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, if not corrected, have a direct and immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care.
  • Type B deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, without correction, could become a risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care, a recordkeeping violation that could impact the care of said persons and/or protection of their resources, or a violation that could impact those services required to meet the needs of persons in care.

PLANS OF CORRECTION (POCs) The licensing agency is required to establish a reasonable length of time to correct a deficiency. In order to set the time, the licensing agency must take into consideration the seriousness of the violation, the number of persons in care involved, and the availability of equipment and personnel necessary to correct the violation. Applicants/licensees are requested to provide a specific plan for each violation on the right side of the form across from each deficiency. The more specific the plan, the less chance exists for any misunderstanding in setting time limits and reviewing corrections. The applicant/licensee who encounters problems beyond their control in completing the corrections within the specified time frame may request and may be granted an extension of the correction due date by the licensing agency.

CORRECTION NOTIFICATION The applicant/licensee is responsible for completing all corrections and promptly notifying the licensing agency of corrections. Applicants/licensees are advised to keep a dated copy of any correspondence sent to the licensing agency concerning corrections, or if corrections are telephoned to the licensing agency, the date, person contacted, and information given.

CIVIL PENALTIES The licensing agency is required by law to issue a Penalty Notice, when applicable, to all facilities holding a license issued by the licensing agency, or subject to licensure, except Certified Family Homes, Resource Families, and Foster Family Homes, or any governmental entity.

PENALTY NOTICE GIVEN The statement concerning civil penalties serves as a penalty notice on this Licensing Report and failure to correct cited licensing deficiencies will result in civil penalties. Applicants/ licensees are required to pay civil penalties when administrative appeals have been exhausted and in accordance with any payment arrangements made with the licensing agency.

APPEAL RIGHTS The applicant/licensee has a right without prejudice to discuss any disagreement in this report with the licensing agency concerning the proper application of licensing requirements. The applicant/ licensee may request a formal review by the licensing agency to amend or dismiss the notice of deficiency and/ or civil penalty. Requests for review shall be made in writing within 15 business days of receipt of a deficiency notification or civil penalty assessment. Licensing deficiencies may be appealed pursuant to the procedures in the LIC 9058 Applicant/Licensee Rights.

AGENCY REVIEW The licensing agency review of an appeal may be conducted based upon information provided in writing by the applicant/licensee. The applicant/licensee may request an office meeting to provide additional information. The applicant/licensee will be notified in writing of the results of the agency review within 60 business days of the date when all necessary information has been provided to the licensing agency.

EMAIL REQUIREMENT Adult Community Care Facilities, Residential Care Facilities for the Chronically Ill, and Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly are required to provide and maintain an active email address of record with the licensing agency.

CCCs constructed before January 1, 2010, to test their water (used for drinking and food preparation) for lead contamination before January 1, 2023, and then every 5-years after the date of the first test. For child care center licenses issued after July 1, 2022, the licensee shall test their water for lead within 180 days of licensure pursuant to Written Directives section 101700 (PIN 21-21.1- CCP). LPA verified that the lead testing was completed in accordance to the Written Directives outlined in PIN 21-21.1-CCP.

LPA observed a facility menu and required licensing forms posted inside the main lobby of the CCC. LPA observed waste receptacles with tight fitting covers throughout the CCC. The CCC uses a manual process for Sign In/Out. LPA reviewed Sign In/Out information which notes the arrival and departure time of children, along with an entry from the children's authorized representatives/parents.

The CCC's outdoor activity area is separated for children of differing ages. The areas are fully enclosed, and the entry/exit gates are secured. LPA observed age-appropriate toys/play equipment in the play area. The toys/play equipment are in suitable condition and free of sharp, loose or pointed objects. The play structures in the activity areas have adequate cushioning materials to absorb falls and there is ample shade provided by shade sails. No bodies of water were observed on site.

LPA reviewed staff and children's records. The children’s records were complete and found to contain emergency contact information, immunization records, and other required licensing documents. Staff records were reviewed and found to be current with Mandated Reporter training, CPR/First Aid training, and other required licensing forms. LPA notes the last fire drill was completed on 08/29/2025. Director informed LPA no firearms or ammunition is stored on site.

Facility representative was reminded that all adults 18 and over, 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 Child Care Center.
