Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Melanie Otsuji arrived to the facility unannounced to conduct the initial 10-day complaint investigation into the above allegation. LPA met with Assistant Director, Marsha Drew with Director Monroe arriving later in the day.. Also present during today's visit were 17 staff members and 83 preschool aged children. LPA made observations and conducted interviews. It was noted that there has been at least one time where a child(ren) should have been napping or resting quietly on their mats but were up walking around due to not wanting to rest. During these times the classroom(s) were not in ratio. Based on LPAs observations and interviews which were conducted and record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division 12 & Chapter 1), are being cited on the attached LIC. 9099D. Exit interview conducted with Director, Monroe. Appeal rights provided.

  • 101216.3Type B

    Teacher-Child Ratio. There shall be a ratio of one teacher visually observing and supervising no more than 12 children in attendance, except as specified in (b) and (c) below. This requirement is not being met due to although during nap time ratio is 1 teacher/aide to 24 napping children, when there is a child(ren) off of their mat during nap time they are no longer considered to be napping and ratio must then revert to 1 teacher to 12 children. This poses a potential risk to the health and safety to the children in care.
