25 | On 04/8/22 at 9:30am, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Melissa Domantay and Melissa Guirit arrived at the facility for an announced case management inspection. LPAs met with Sabrina Cazarez, the administrator. The normal hours of operation are Monday-Friday 7:30am-6:00pm. An application was received to increase capacity and adding infant crib area. LPAs toured the infant classroom and crib area to conduct a health and safety inspection, and completed the following measurements:
INDOORS: 155.72 square feet = 5 children
OUTDOORS: 412.17 square feet= 5 children
A fire clearance, with a capacity of 5 infants, was received from the Alameda City Fire Department on 2/15/22.
Per previous measurements indoors equals to 5 children and outdoors equals to 5 children.
LPAs observed that the classroom has sufficient lighting, heating and ventilation for safety and comfort. The classroom floor and surfaces are clean and free of toxic substances. There is sufficient storage for children's belongings. The furniture, equipment, toys and activities are age appropriate and in good condition, and there is an ample supply available. Families bring snacks and lunch from home, but the facility has emergency snacks available. There is water available for children both indoors and outdoors. There is one changing table in the classroom and it is next to an operational sink. There are two potty seats available for children. There is a separate bathroom for staff. The front office area and staff bathroom will be used for the isolation of sick children. There are two cribs available for children. The outdoor play area is fully fenced and has age appropriate toys and activities available for children. LPAs did not observe any defects or dangerous conditions.
The new infant crib area and capacity of 5 children will be made part of the license, effective today 04/08/22, and can be used when the facility is ready. There are no deficiencies being cited today. A Notice of Site inspection was provided to the Sabrina, and an exit interview was conducted. |
