Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

On May 1, 2026, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Miguel Herrera and Priscilla Zamudio conducted an unannounced case management inspection at the facility. LPAs met with Director, Ariel Babbitt who accompanied LPAs during a tour of the facility both inside and outside. LPAs explained the purpose for the inspection. During the facility tour LPAs conducted observations in the outdoor play area while children were playing. The surface of the outdoor play area was not maintained in a safe condition as the concrete surface around the bike path was cracked and not leveled which was a tripping hazard. Furthermore, the grass area had potholes that were deemed a tripping hazard. Additionally, the grass area had leaking sprinklers that accumulated water that children were playing with. LPAs observed the synthetic grass area near the playground also had a pothole with the fabric lifting that was deemed a tripping hazard to children in care. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with Director, Ariel Babbitt. Appeal rights were provided. Per Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1, of the California Code of Regulations, the following deficiency is cited: (see LIC. 809-D). This report shall be made available to the public upon request.
