On 08/29/2024, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Octavia Nolan and Nancy Her conducted an unannounced case management inspection and met with Site Supervisor Rene Maston. LPAs reviewed the reason of the inspection, and a tour of the center was conducted both inside and outside. Applicant is requesting to change the preschool classrooms from A1 and A2 to B4 and B5 with the capacity to remain at 72. Applicant is aware to contact the Fresno Community Care Licensing for a change in classrooms and/or change in capacity.

The classrooms were observed to be clean and free of toxins. LPAs observed that the furniture and equipment appeared to be safe and in good condition. The shelving units are anchored to prevent tipping onto children in care. There are enough tables, cubbies, chairs, mats, and plenty of toys for children to play. There are working smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in classrooms, located on the ceiling.

LPAs reviewed with Site Supervisor, that any future changes to the classrooms are required to ensure that furniture does not tip over on to children and the furniture is to be anchored or situated that tipping does not occur. Classroom changes of furniture shall be situated that 100% visual supervision is always provided to children in care.

Room measurements were taken and reviewed with Site Supervisor. The total inside preschool area measured to an approximate 2319 square feet which will not accommodate the capacity of 72 preschool children at a time. It will only accommodate 66 preschool children. There is adequate storage space available for children's belongings in the classroom. Site Supervisor understands that children's equipment needs to match the capacity she is licensed for. Toys and equipment appear to be age appropriate. The classrooms do not have exclusive use of the bathroom. They will be sharing the bathrooms on campus with the other classrooms. A Waiver will need to be submitted. There is a total of 8 toilets, 2 urinals, and 10 sinks/hand washing fixtures which will accommodate the capacity of 72 preschool children.
