Correction check·February 12, 2026

On 02/12/2026 at 10:00 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Courtnee Peebles arrived at the Family Child Care Home for a case management - plan of correction inspection. LPA met with the Licensee Maria Larsen and explained the reason for today\342\200\231s visit. During todays visit, LPA observed the following: There is an in-ground pool in the off-limit area of the backyard. There is a 5ft mesh fence that is in good repair, with a self-closing gate that is self-latching. LPA verified the gate opens away from the pool. The pool is directly across from the sliding doorway entrance/exit, the back side of the pool is surrounded by mesh as well with a vinyl fence behind that. The rest of the pool is surrounded by the 5ft mesh fence with the vertical clearance from the ground no more than 1 inches from the ground. LPA confirmed Licensee installed pool alarm that is in compliance with ASTM International Standard F2208. Licensee tested the pool alarm while LPA was present, and LPA verified the pool alarm is in working order during today\342\200\231s visit. LPA verified there is a life ring with minimum exterior diameter of 17 inches that is approved by the United Stated Coast Guard. LPA confirmed the rescue pole onsite does meets the minimum requirement of 12 feet. LPA and licensee searched the web to find fixed lenght poles and was unsuccessful. LPA confirmed Licensee will keep the rescue pole at 12 ft during operating hours and confirmed the pole is at 12 ft during the daily pool inspection until a fixed 12 ft pole becomes available for purchase. Licensee was reminded documentation confirming they are completing daily inspection logs to ensure all safety measures are in place and in working order. LPA verified there are no windows with direct access into the pool. LPA did not observe items or objects near fencing that would reduce the fence\342\200\231s height to less than 5 feet or make fence climbable by a child under six years old. Pool and Safety requirements meet Title 22 regulations at this time. LPA advised licensee to be vigilant of any wear and tear on the fencing, gate, spring and latch and ensure it continues to meet requirements. LPA Peebles will ensure cited deficiencies from 2/05/2026 will be cleared. An exit interview was conducted. A copy of this report along with appeal rights were provided. A notice of site was provided and shall remain posted for 30 days.
