25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Crystal Green conducted an unannounced Case Management licensee initiated inspection to inspect and measure facility for capacity increase determination. Licensee is requesting to increase capacity by adding an additional classroom to their existing license. Licensing staff met with Director, Marcela Torres. The licensee also has an infant/toddler program which is licensed through the Department (1980096580). The preschool and infant programs do not have any shared areas.
LPA was provided a tour of the proposed additional classroom space. This facility currently has 4 classrooms (Jellyfish, Starfish, Penguins and Otters). The proposed additional classroom will be called the Dolphins. Census was obtained during this inspection. The facility was observed to be operating within its licensed capacity. LPA inspected the proposed additional classroom and observed age appropriate furniture. Individual storage space was available for each child located inside the classroom. Toys were observed to be clean and safe. The children will have access to the restroom located in the hallway. There are three toilets and two sinks available. All toilets and hand washing facilities are in safe and sanitary operating conditions.
There are smoke detectors and fire extinguishers located throughout the facility. The children have water accessible to them via personal water bottles. The water fountain located on the infant toddler playground has been removed after Lead testing was completed. Per Director, the water fountain tested for lead and the facility has since removed the equipment. LPA observed the area to no longer contain a water fountain. The Director provided documentation results for the lead testing.
Outdoor play equipment was observed to be in good condition, free of sharp, lose or pointed parts. Outdoor equipment was observed to be age-appropriate. Outdoor activity space surface was observed to be maintained in a safe condition as is free of hazards. There is adequate shade in the outdoor play area. LPA observed there to be cushioning material available in areas around and/or under climbing equipment to absorb a fall. LPA did not observe any violations or hazards outdoors. |
