The allegation is that a child's personal rights were not met at the facility because the child either got a bad diaper rash or that it was made worse when the staff failed to change the child when needed and left the child in soiled clothing. Parents were interviewed and predominantly were happy with the program and diapering issues.
It was not possible to determine if the rash the child suffered was caused by or made worse by staff at the facility.
This complaint is inconclusive.

California Department of social Services Community Care Ucensing Division CCLD Regional Office, 1515 Oay Street Ste. 1102 Oakland, CA. 94612 RE: Facility Site Visit9/18/2013
· Facility #013420968
September 19, 2013
Dear Licensing Program Manager Diane Perez:
r
I am requesting an appeal regarding the citations received during a site visit conducted on our facility on September 18, 2013. The analyst Susan Neeson, arrived at 2:40pm. During her visit we received 2 Type A deficiencies; #101170e2 & 101229a1 which have both been corrected.
We are appealing based on these fact:
Citation 101170e 2 - Jessica Bronson. During our initial application, our original analyst Paulita Dela Cruz was provided with all the necessary documentations needed for licensing during the owners (Michelle Mendler) visit; this was at the Community Care Ucensing Facility where the documents were hand delivered to Ms. DelaCruz personally. I am including with this letter a copy of the original paperwork submitted (Emergency Disaster Plan for Child Care Centers) dated 10-12-12; the criminal background clearance transfer request dated August 13, 2012; and the facility evaluation report granting us the license for a capacity of 32 children on October 19,2012. During this time of approval we were under the assumption that all our teachers had been cleared and we were ready to start.
I would like to bring to your attention the dates in which the paper work was submitted and the date of which we were approved would lead me to believe that Ms. DelaCruz had reviewed all of our paperwork and all was cleared.
1450 Sixth Street, Berkeley CA 94710 510-525-4841 www.goldengate-kids.com
,-, ('"', r,
Much to our surprise during this visit we were cited $500.00 with Ms. Bronson as not having clearance through fingerprints. We would never intentionally have had any teacher working in our facility without the proper clearance from DOJ knowing the severity of the consequences and jeopardize the safety of all the children under our care. We have learned a valuable lesson in making sure we do our own checks and balances especially when it comes to important documentation. I am hoping that you can grant us a reversal of the citation. Your understanding is greatly appreciated.
Citation 101229a1- We understand the importance of coverage and supervision and realize that there must be 2 supervising adults; 1 for each class. We were under the impression that having 1 teacher to 24 sleeping students was sufficient, we now have corrected this situation and have 1 teacher covering the toddler option students and 1 teacher covering the preschoolers. We apologize for this oversight and will not happen again; because we are a start-up preschool it is helpful to have your support and assistance in matters we lack in information and knowledge.
I also had a question regarding the paperwork issued, during the site visit Susan Neesons' printer was not working so she had me sign electronically. I am looking at a copy of the facility visit summary report. It states that it was an announced visit. Unfortunately we were not informed of this visit as I review the paperwork that was typed (printed) it states that it was an unannounced visit, so there are discrepancies in the paperwork For our edification we need to understand the paperwork involved.
We truly appreciate your consideration in granting us the opportunity to appeal. I can be confident in saying that we will be diligent in making sure all aspects of our facility is on top of the requirements of Community Care Licensing.
