An Annual Random inspection was conducted at the facility by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Mila Quinto. LPA observed Licensee and Licensee’s assistant Aman Patel, caring for 5 children which included 1 infant and 4 preschool age children. Due to COVID 19 guidelines, LPA observed staff and children following CDC and Dept of Public Health Guidelines.

A review of the Facility Personnel Report Summary on this date indicates all facility residents, staff, or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions. Currently there are 4 adults including the licensee living in the facility. Facility Day care hours are 6am-6pm, Monday through Friday.

During today’s inspection, LPA and licensee’s assistant toured the inside and outside areas identified in the facility sketch as accessible to childcare children. Off limits areas are made inaccessible by means of door locks and baby gates. There are working carbon monoxide, smoke detector, and fire extinguishers in the home that meet statutory and State Fire Marshall standards. Detergents, cleaning compounds, medicines, and other items which could pose a danger if readily available to children were stored inaccessible to children. Licensee stated there are no firearms and/or other dangerous weapons in the facility and none were observed during today's inspections. The home has age appropriate toys for the ages served. LPA verified there is a working telephone service (cellular service). There are no bodies of water on the premises.
