This is a change of location, previous facility number is 195700122. On 4/4/25 at 10:10 AM, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Matthew Sapien and Gigi Reyes conducted an announced Prelicensing Inspection for a change of location to the abovementioned residence. LPAs met with Applicant, Razia Noorzay (Harasis). LPAs informed Applicant of the nature and purpose of the inspection. LPA notes 1 child present at the time of the inspection (Applicant's daughter). Applicant informed LPA the intention to operate their Family Child Care Home (FCCH) Monday through Sunday. Applicant will accommodate night time care to support the needs of parents who require such assistance during late hours. The Applicant also informed LPA of the intention to provide care for children 0 months to 13 years of age. LPAs toured the interior and exterior of the residence with the Applicant. The residence is a one story house consisting of three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The home is located on nearly 8 acres of land. The home's dining room (converted day care room), guest bedroom (additional day care room), hallway bathroom, and front yard will be utilized for child care. The remainder of the home is excluded from childcare services: garage, master bedroom, master bathroom, additional guestroom, backyard, and kitchen. Importantly to note, all areas that are inaccessible are made secure by child safety gates and locks. All accessible and inaccessible areas were toured thoroughly. LPAs observed the converted day care room to have proper spacing and ventilation for children in care. The dining room has one wood burning stove that is made inaccessible by a child safety gate and with locks. An additional fireplace was observed in the living room, which is inaccessible area. The fireplace is enclosed by a secure glass door. (CONT. LIC 809-C, Page 2) The hallway bathroom of the residence was observed to be clean and free of toxins. The bathroom has cabinets that contain common and non-hazardous bathroom items. Importantly to note, the hallway area is made inaccessible via a child safety gate. This child safety gate will be opened for children to allow access to the bathroom and the additional day care room. Sharps in the home are stored on top of the fridge in the kitchen which is beyond the reach of children in care. Additionally, LPAs observed cleaning compounds in the home stored in an elevated kitchen cabinet. Additional cleaning supplies are kept in a cabinet underneath the sink and in the garage in elevated areas. Medication is also stored in the kitchen in an elevated cabinet. LPAs observed a required fire extinguisher (2A10BC) in the home which was last serviced on 1/24/25. LPAs reminded Applicant of the responsibility to service or purchase a regulation fire extinguisher annually. The home has a number of smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors throughout. In the main day care room, a smoke detector was tested at 10:35 AM, while a carbon monoxide detector was tested at 10:36 AM. Both detectors were found to be operational. As mentioned prior, there will be outdoor access for children in care. The front yard will be the only area accessible for children in care. This area consists of a large natural grass yard with varied footing. In addition to grass, the footing of the area consists of rock pebbles and concrete pavement. LPAs observed a couple sources of shade provided from neighboring trees and a wooden pergola among other things. The backyard is fully enclosed by wood fencing throughout. Two bodies of water (a swimming pool and jacuzzi) were observed in the backyard of the house. LPAs observed the pool to be enclosed by a 5 foot mesh fence that meets ATSM F2286 standards. A jacuzzi was also observed to be covered meeting Department standards. LPAs record review revealed Applicant completed Preventative Health training. Further, Applicant completed Mandated Reporter training on 3/13/25, and Pediatric CPR/First Aid (EMSA approved) on 1/30/25. LPA reminded Applicant of the obligation to maintain current training and certifications. Because the Applicant owns the residence, a control of property was provided. The Licensee does not currently have liability insurance for the home. LPA notes no firearms or ammunition are stored on site. LPAs reviewed with Applicant the LIC 311D, Forms/Records To Keep In Your Family Child Care Homes, children\342\200\231s forms/records, facility forms/records, and information to be posted. (CONT. LIC 809-C, Page 3) LPAs discussed the safe sleep regulations with Applicant and discussed the Child Care Licensing Safe Sleep webpage at https://www.cdss.ca.gov/inforesources/child-care-licensing/public-information-and-resources/safe-sleep as an additional resource. LPA also informed Applicant of the importance of checking for recalled infant devices on the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) website at https://www.cpsc.gov/ and recommended they register all infant devices with the CPSC to be notified of any recalls on their purchased equipment. Incidental Medical Services (IMS) policy was discussed. For IMS information see PIN 22-02-CCP. When any IMS is provided, a Plan for Providing IMS must be submitted to the Department. The following information regarding ADA was provided: US Department of Justice (USDOJ) toll-free ADA Information Line at (800) 514-0301 (voice) or (800) 514-0383 (TTY) and link to publication: Commonly Asked Questions about Child Care Centers and the ADA, available at: http://www.ada.gov/childqanda.htm . Applicant will not be providing IMS Services. Applicant was informed of the MyChildCarePlan.org site, a consumer education website that helps families obtain child care by connecting them to child care providers and Resource and Referral Agencies (R&Rs) throughout California. Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) regularly sends information to licensed facilities, providers, and stakeholders by way of Provider Information Notices (PIN), Program Quarterly Update Newsletters and other important information communication platforms. To receive important licensed related information to licensed facilities, visit the CCLD Important Information website at https://www.cdss.ca.gov/inforesources/community-care-licensing/subscribe and select the Child Care option to receive email communication. Applicant was reminded that all adults 18 and over living in the home, persons who provide care and supervision to children, and staff who have contact with children, including employees and volunteers, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a licensed Family Child Care Home. A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day up to $500.00 maximum per day/per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated. (CONT. LIC 809-C, Page 4) On this date, 4/4/25, the California Attorney General - Megan\342\200\231s Law website was searched for information on sex offenders required to register with local law enforcement under California's Megan's Law. No registered sex offenders were found at the facility address. Under state law, some registered sex offenders are not subject to public disclosure; therefore, they may not have been included in this search. However, the Department conducts a monthly cross reference of each address on record for all registered sex offenders against all CCLD facility addresses pursuant to information shared by California DOJ. A notice of site visit was given to Applicant and must remain posted on, or immediately adjacent to, the interior side of the main door for 30 days.
