LPA met with new Director Rosario Dolente. This center was previously a Preschool program with a toddler option and Licensee Michael Castillo has requested an update to the center to convert the center to an Infant Program with a toddler option. The Infant program operates in the "Infant Room" and the toddler option operates in "Toddler Classroom A" and "Toddler Classroom B". All classrooms are located in the modular building. The hours of operation are Monday - Friday from 7:30am to 4:00pm. All classrooms were inspected and measured during this inspection and measure the following: Infant Room: Infant Class (ages 12 to 17 months of age): measured 47.94 square feet which is sufficient to accommodate the requested capacity of 1 infant Toddler Classroom A: Toddler Option Class (ages 18 to 36 months): measured 672.32 square feet Toddler Classroom B: Toddler Option Class (ages 18 to 36 months): measured 692.44 square feet The total indoor square footage calculation for the Toddler option is 1,364.76 square feet which is sufficient to accommodate 38 children and sufficient to accommodate the requested capacity of 20 toddlers. Director understands that the ratio for the infant room will be 1:3 and the ratio for the toddler option program will be 1:4 because the center is Title 5 program. The "Infant Room" is equipped with age appropriate toys and equipment for infants. Director and Licensee have decided not to have a separate sleeping area for infants and have decided that the center will not accept any infant who require a crib to sleep in, the center will only accept an infant that is able to nap on a mat. The toddler option classrooms are equipped with appropriate furniture and napping equipment (cots) including tables, chairs, cubbies, bookshelves, and other materials for the children. ...Continuation on page 2...
