Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

On Wednesday, January 31, 2024, at 08:05 AM Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Amber Shaw and Jeanette Sanchez arrived at the facility for an unrelated complaint investigation and met with licensee Rosalva Garcia-Carranza. LPAs disclosed the purpose of the visit and was granted entry to the facility by the licensee. Nine children were present during this inspection. Licensee assisted LPAs inside and outside the facility during this inspection. At 08:07 AM, LPAs observed nine children present in the day-care area with lone adult Rosalva Garcia-Carranza (licensee). LPAs then asked for a roster to identify ages of the children. The facility is licensed for 14 children, however, whenever there is no assistant present, the ratio reverts back to a small family child care ratio. Licensee stated her assistant was out of the facility to drop off a school age child. A Type A citation for lack of supervision will be issued, see LIC 809-D. Upon receipt, licensee shall post and provide copies of this licensing report to parents/guardians of children in care at the facility and to parents/guardians of children newly enrolled at the facility for the next 12 months. The Notice of Site Visit and Type A Deficiencies from today’s visit must be posted for 30 days. Failure to keep these posted for the entire 30 days will result in an immediate $100 civil penalty for each. An exit interview was conducted with Licensee and a copy of this report was provided. Appeal Right were discussed and provided.
