This is an amended report from 08/26/19. On 08/26/19, Licensing Program Analyst Briana Plumboy and Melissa Guirit met with Director Kandi Tasker-Dill for an Unannounced Random Inspection. The center and playground were toured to conduct a Health and Safety Inspection. Present for this visit was 8 infants, 9 toddlers, and 8 fingerprint clear and associated teachers. There is also a preschool component associated with the center, #010211775.

The infant component of the center is located inside room 1 which is divided by mobile and non-mobile infants. The mobile toddlers are on the left side of the classroom and the non mobile infants are on the right side of the classroom. The room appears to be safe, clean, and in good repair.

The changing table is in arms reach of the sink. LPA Plumboy inspected the changing area for cleanliness. The playground surface appears to be maintained. The playground equipment has age appropriate toys and equipment, with sufficient cushioning underneath to absorb a fall. LPA did not observe any dangerous items accessible today, including medications, poisons, disinfectants or cleaning supplies, that could be dangerous to infants. All solid waste containers have tight fitting covers on, and appear to be in good repair. Disaster drills are being conducted at least once every 6 months, and the log indicates the last one done was on 07/29/19.
