This daycare earned 4 out of 5 stars overall. Structural quality reflects a 50% violation rate and a license in good standing.

- Administration of Child Day Care Licensing Subsequent to Initial Licensure, a Person Specified in Subdivision (B) Who Is Not Exempt From Fingerprinting Shall Obtain Either A…HSC 1596.871(c)(1)(A)
Based on observation and record review, the licensee did not comply with the section cited above. During today’s inspection , LPA Garcia observed Staff 1 (S1) providing direct care and supervision to four children. Upon review, LPA determined that S1 did not have a criminal record clearance or exemption on file prior to the individual’s employment or initial presence in the child care facility, as required by regulation. This constitutes the presence of an uncleared adult in the facility while children were in care. which poses an immediate health, safety or personal rights risk to persons in care.
