A good lawyer or advocate can argue she was following the intent of the law. Set up, lock door, prep/supervise kids, take down.
If a client arrived for pick up/drop off, and the regs said she had to supervise water-
OP would have to dump pool, go inside with kids, take back outside, refill pool . . . In drought stricken CA. That is nonsensical, even by CA standards. Pools can be made briefly inaccessible by locking the door. (Yes, 2nd adult there but no mention of whether or not the adult could be alone with kids)
We could debate the point endlessly but OPs best bet here is to consult an advocate as mentioned above .
