Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Jonnisha Culbert attempted to conduct an unannounced annual/random inspection at the facility noted above. LPA met with Director, Parinaz Seraji, discussed the purposes of the visit, and provided them with an Entrance checklist for Child Care Centers (LIC 125). They guided analysts on a tour of the facility. This is a preschool center with a Toddler component which consists of 3 classrooms. The program operates Monday through Friday from 8 am to 6pm. The program offers care to children 18 months to 6 years old. Present during today's inspection were 30 children, 6 staff, and 1 volunteer. Due to time restraints, the Annual/Random visit will be completed on a future date. LPA will address deficiencies observed today on a that day. Director 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. A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day for a maximum of 5 days or, if the penalty is for a repeat violation, for a maximum of 30 days per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated. A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the Director, Parinaz Seraji.
