Type B(3)
101229: Responsibility for Providing Care and Supervision: (a) "The licensee shall provide care and supervision as necessary to meet the children's needs. (1) No child(ren) shall be left without the supervision of a teacher at any time... Supervision shall include visual observation." Based on interviews conducted and information obtained, the facility did not comply with the section cited above when a child was left unsupervised during the transition to the outdoor play period. This poses a potential health, safety, or personal rights risk to children in care.
Personal Rights — Based on interviews conducted, it was determined that incidents involving Staff 1 and Child 1 were observed between 4/23/25 and 4/25/25, where Staff 1 was witnessed on multiple occasions yelling at Child 1 while attempting to redirect the child. This poses a potential health, safety, and personal rights risk to children in care.
Personal Rights — Based on interviews conducted, it was determined that incidents involving Staff 1 and Child 1 were observed between 4/23/25 and 4/25/25. During this period, Staff was observed on multiple occasions force-feeding Child 1 during mealtime. Additionally, Staff 1 was witnessed displaying aggressive behaviors while attempting to redirect Child 1. This included grabbing Child 1's arm in response to the child not following instructions and exhibiting tantrum behaviors. This poses a potential health, safety, and personal rights risk to children in care.
How we rate this daycareCalifornia CCLD records›
California pre-grades every violation itself: Type A means an immediate risk to a child's health, safety, or personal rights; Type B means a violation that, if not corrected, could become that same immediate risk. We never escalate above the state's own grade.
🔴 Serious concerns — any of:
- The license is on probation — CCLD requires the facility to comply with specific terms and conditions to prevent revocation of its license
- A Type A violation is on record — CCLD's own most serious grade, meaning an immediate risk to a child's health, safety, or personal rights
🟡 Watch carefully — any of:
- A Type B violation is on record — CCLD's own lesser-risk grade, meaning a violation that, if not corrected, could become an immediate risk to a child's health, safety, or personal rights
🟢 Clean
Actively licensed, with no violations in your lookback window.
Worth knowing: California's public records don't always say whether a specific violation was later fixed, so we don't discount a Type A's severity by guessing at correction status — CCLD's own definition notes a Type A citation "will always be issued, even if the violation is corrected on the spot." A single Type A moves a facility to Serious concerns, matching CCLD's own grading directly.
