Why this rating
This daycare earned 4 out of 5 stars overall. Structural quality reflects a 50% violation rate, no complaints on record, and a license in good standing. The structural rating also includes California's licensing baseline — what every licensed daycare in the state must meet. California caps infant ratios at 1:4, toddler ratios at 1:6, and preschool ratios at 1:12. Lead teachers must hold a High School Diploma. Annual training isn't required by the state. No objective process measures (e.g., state quality rating or national accreditation) are available for this daycare. The overall rating reflects structural features only.

- Infant Needs and Services Plan (B) The Needs and Services Plan Shall Be in Writing and Shall Include the Following: (2) Infants Up to 12 Months of Age Shall Have a Completed…CCR 101419.2(b)(2)
Based on observation and interviews, the facility did not comply with the section cited above in that they were not aware of the requiement to have form LIC 9227 in place for children under 12 months. Infants were observed sleeping on their backs and staff stated that they turn them back if they flip over, therefore the missing form poses a potential rather than immediate risk to infants in care.
