Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

On 9/7/23 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Monica Mathur conducted an unannounced Subsequent Complaint Investigation at KId Time Inc. and met with Director, Streeta Farrell. Complainant alleges that there was a rat infestation in the facility. It was determined that in July 2023 there were few rat sightings in the sandbox and storage shed. These areas were closed off and children continued to play in rest of the outdoor yard and breezeway. Based on the interviews and information obtained throughout the investigation, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met. Therefore, the allegation is SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12 is being cited on 9099-D page. Director states pest control was consulted, facility trimmed bushes around yard, exposed toys in shed were thrown out and lid cover boxes used to store toys. Yard is inspected daily for rodents. Deficiency was cleared during today's inspection. Exit interview was conducted with Director, Streeta Farrell. A NOTICE OF SITE VISIT WAS ISSUED AND MUST BE POSTED FOR 30 DAYS.
