Incident investigation·August 12, 2025

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Deborah Khashe met with Facility Representative, Sarah Kelly to follow up on the Unusual Incident Report submitted to Community Care Licensing Division on 08/05/25. LPA toured the facility, observed the care and supervision of children, and conducted on site interviews with childcare staff. During today\342\200\231s visit LPA observed 31 children being supervised by 5 teachers. LPA determined through recorded review and interviews that children have been injured by sliding doors coming off the tracks in the classroom. In addition, it was reported to LPA that in the past the doors have fallen off the tracks before and hit another child. A Type-A violation was assessed on subsequent 809-D page. Facility Representative shall post LIC 809-D with Type A deficiency for 30 days and provide copies of this licensing report to/parents of children in care at the facility and to parents/guardians of children newly enrolled at the facility during the next 12 months. LIC 9224 must be signed by the parents/guardians and kept with the children\342\200\231s forms as a receipt whenever any Type A documents are provided by the licensees. LIC 9224 and Appeal Rights were provided. Exit interview was conducted, and report was reviewed with Facility Representative. A Notice of Site Visit Report was posted by LPA and must remain posted for 30 days. Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100. Report Continues on LIC 809C In addition, LPA determined through observation and interviews with licensee that children were taken to the swimming pool on 07/10/25 by childcare staff without having proper water safety certificates. In June 2024, licensing staff informed licensee Kelly about Regulation #101216.6 which requires specific staffing ratios when near a body of water and also for at least one staff to have a Water Safety Certificate on file. Licensee stated that while she was aware of the requirement, she did not get clarification on which course specifically to take and where to find such a class. Facility staff took a group of children to a nearby pool on at least one occasion, 7/10/2025. On 7/24/2025, licensing staff reviewed the regulation with licensee again and subsequently sent information on courses. As of today, LPA still has not received any certificates of completion as requested. A Type B deficiency was cited for this deficiency and must be corrected by the due date. Failure to correct deficiencies shall result in civil penalties.
