25 | On 11/26/19 at 1:40pm, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Loretta Dyson and Arminder Singh arrived at the home for an unannounced random inspection. LPAs met with the licensee. The licensee's fingerprint cleared father, 3 infants, 1 preschool age child, 2 teenage nieces and the licensee's child who is over 10 years old were also present.
LPAs conducted a tour of the areas of the home that are used for the child care, with the licensee, 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, family room, covered patio, bedroom on the right side of the home and both of the hallway bathrooms. All other areas are off limits to children and are made inaccessible by gate, closed and/or locked doors and visual supervision. The isolation area will be a section of the family room, away from other children in care, or the on limit bedroom when it is not nap time. The outdoor play area is fully fenced and free from defects or dangerous conditions. There are ample age appropriate toys that appear to be safe and in good condition. LPAs did not observe any bodies of water, hazardous items or toxins accessible today.
The home has a fully charged 2A10BC fire extinguisher, smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector, working telephone and fully stocked first aid kit. The licensee has proof that she enrolled in the CPR/first aid training that will be on 1/12/20. The fireplace is blocked to prevent access by children, and there are no heaters accessible to children. Per licensee, there are no firearms in the home. The licensee conducts and documents fire and disaster drills at least twice a year, and the log indicates that the last drills were done on 9/10/19.
Children's files were reviewed. The facility roster was reviewed, and a copy obtained. The licensee is in ratio today.
