On 5/15/19 at 1:39pm, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Loretta Dyson arrived at the home for an unannounced random inspection. LPA met with the licensee. There was 1 infant and 5 preschool age children present.

At 1:45pm, LPA requested and reviewed the licensee's CPR and first aid certificates, which expire on 1/31/21. LPA reviewed the facility roster and obtained a copy. LPA reviewed the files of 2 children in care. The licensee conducts and documents fire and earthquake drills and the log indicates that drills were conducted on 3/13/19. The licensee has completed the required mandated reporter training, and LPA reviewed the certificate which is dated 3/25/18.
At 1:58pm, LPA toured the areas of the home used for the child care, to conduct a health and safety inspection. The home is a single story home, which is neat and clean with heating and ventilation for the safety and comfort of children in care. The on limit areas include the living room, dining area, kitchen, first bedroom on the right side of the hallway, hallway bathroom, and bedroom at the end of the hallway and the bathroom in this bedroom. The off limit areas include the second bedroom on the right side of the hallway and the garage, which are made inaccessible by closed and/or locked doors and visual supervision. The isolation area will be a section of the living room, away from other children in care. The fenced backyard is used for the outdoor play area. The backyard is separated into sections by gates. The section of the yard to the right side of the home is off limits, and includes a hot tub which is locked to prevent access by children. The section to the left side of the yard is off limits. The section of the yard used for children is free from defects or dangerous conditions. LPA did not observe any bodies of water, hazardous items or toxins accessible to children today. LPA observed an ample supply of toys and activities, which are age appropriate and appear to be in good condition. All of the required forms are posted and visible for public review. The home has a fully charged 3A40BC fire extinguisher, working combination smoke/carbon monoxide detector, telephone and first aid supplies. There are no heaters accessible to children. There is an electronic fireplace, and it was not hot to the touch when LPA checked it. LPA inspected the storage locations for the firearm and ammunition, and verified that they are stored separately, in a locked box in an off limit area of the home. continued on 809C
