LPA was granted access to the facility by facility representative, Estela Perez. LPA discussed the purpose of today’s inspection, toured the facility, took census and then met with the facility representative to further discuss the incident. LPA gathered information and conducted interviews. On 04/02/26, it was reported that at approximately 4:30pm on 04/01/26, Child 1 (C1) and teachers went outside to the playground. At some point between 5:00pm-5:10pm, C1 entered the classroom by themselves. At approximately 5:13pm, C1 was observed by a staff, in the classroom actively engaged in play. Based on the information gathered, the following violations have been identified: C1 was left without any visual observation from any staff, resulting in an absence of supervision. California Code of Regulations Section 101229(a)(1) has not been followed and is being cited. SEE LIC809D for cited deficiencies. A civil penalty has been assessed during this inspection because of the absence of supervision of C1, in the amount of $500. See LIC809D and LIC421IM for more details.
