On June 20, 2023 at 8:40am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Julia Placencia arrived unannounced for a Required-1 Year inspection. LPA met with director Tina Thompson and assistant director Megha Singh. There were 19 children and an additional 7 staff members present during the inspection. This program is part of a combination center which includes a preschool age component. The facility was toured for a health and safety inspection. The hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 7:30am to 6:30pm.

Furniture and napping equipment observed during inspection were age appropriate and in good condition. The indoor and outdoor activity space for the infant program is physically separate from the preschool component. Each crib is occupied by only one infant at a time, and is free from all loose objects, including blankets and pillows. Disinfectants, cleaning solutions, poisons and other items that are dangerous to children were inaccessible during the inspection. The floors were free of tripping hazards. Kitchen/food preparation and storage areas were observed to be clean, and free of evidence of rodents, and food is protected against contamination. All storage containers for solid waste have tight-fitting covers that are in good repair. Drinking water is available both indoors and outdoors. Menus were posted. Medications are inaccessible to children. There are no pools or similar bodies of water at this facility. Outdoor activity space and playground equipment were observed to be safe, free of hazards and had appropriate cushioning material to absorb falls. There is a shaded area provided for the children. Required licensing documents were posted. Fire extinguishers, carbon monoxide and smoke detectors meet State Fire Marshall standards.

The facility is operating within its licensed capacity. The facility is within ratio today with one teacher supervising no more than four Infants, and one teacher supervising no more than six toddlers. LPA did not observe any child left without visual supervision during the inspection. LPA verified children present were signed in. LPA verified both opening and closing staff have current CPR/First aid training.
