Notre Dame Infant Center

Complaint investigation substantiated a supervision ratio violation: children in the toddler classroom lacked parent consent for transfer, requiring them to be supervised under infant ratio requirements (1:4 or 1 teacher with 2 aides to 12 children), which the facility did not apply. Type B citation issued.

The unannounced case management inspection found incomplete staff and child files. Missing items included a health screening form, mandated reporter training proof, and parent permission for placement of toddlers in the toddler program.

Annual inspection of the toddler-component center found the environment safe and well maintained, with lead-tested water, current safe-sleep checks, and complete child records. The main cited issue was the missing mandated reporter training certificate for the Child Care Provider AB 1207 requirement.
