On November 20, 2024, I presented at CQEL’s California Childcare Summit. I presented about licensing complaint investigations, citation appeals, waivers, and how to handle a lawsuit if you get sued. At the actual presentation I expanded on these topics and answered questions on issues not included in the slides, but below are the slides for my presentation, which do have specific, actionable advice for all childcare providers in California.

Appeal licensing citations like a lawyer.

Get the Licensing Appeal Kit.
Researched & written by a lawyer and preschool owner, for childcare providers.

As a lawyer in private practice, clients used to pay $575 per hour for my time and effort. The guides, templates, research, and real-world appeals in my Licensing Appeal Kit represents over 300 hours of research and work on my part, which I’m making available to every childcare provider in California for the cost of a few children’s books. And for a limited number of providers, I’m offering the Licensing Appeal Kit and a 1-hour consultation with me to talk over any licensing issues whenever they need.
