32 | Licensee Denise De La Mora reported there are no firearms or ammunition on the premises. All poisonous substances are stored in a locked area. No poisons were observed during the inspection. Detergents, cleaning products, medications, and other hazardous items are kept inaccessible to children.
There is one fireplace located in the daycare room. It is secured with a metal screen and glass doors and is further barricaded with a bookshelf. The fireplace will not be used during daycare hours.
The home is equipped with a working fire extinguisher, smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector, and has adequate heating and ventilation to ensure safety and comfort.
This is a two-story home, and access to the stairs is gated when children under the age of five are present. Age-appropriate, safe toys and play equipment were observed throughout the home. The home has working telephone service, and LPA confirmed the number as (209) 408-5803.
No day care children were in care today, other than the licensee’s own 14-month-old child. As a result, children’s files were not reviewed during this visit. Licensee is aware that children in care must be supervised at all times and must never be left in parked vehicles. The outdoor play area in the backyard is fenced and free of hazards. The facility is operating within the licensed capacity.
Licensee’s Mandated Reporter Training is valid through March 24, 2027. Pediatric CPR/First Aid certification is current and expires on July 8, 2025. No assistants or volunteers were present during today's visit; however, compliance was verified for Licensee Denise De La Mora, who has immunization records on file for influenza, pertussis, and measles, as required.
LPA discussed the Community Care Licensing website (www.ccld.ca.gov), which provides access to resources such as forms, regulations, Provider Information Notices (PINs), and quarterly updates. Reporting Requirements under Section 102416.2 were also reviewed with the licensee.
Licensee Denise De La Mora was reminded that all adults age 18 and over living or working in the home, including employees and volunteers (unless otherwise exempt under Health and Safety Code section 1596.871), must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer an existing clearance prior to initial presence in the licensed Family Child Care Home. Failure to comply may result in a civil penalty of $100.00 per day, per person, for up to 5 days—or up to 30 days for repeat violations. (Continued on LIC809-C)
