Licensing Program Analysts (LPA's) Bardo Baluyot and Crystal Green conducted a unannounced case management inspection to the above facility for a capacity increase. Licensing is requesting to increase from a small family home to a large. Upon arrival LPA's were greeted by Licensee's spouse, Xiaoming Miao. Also present was Licensee Liqing Gao.

At approximately 1:17 pm upon entry of the home, Licensing staff observed 6 infants located in the living room area, 4 children were observed napping in cribs and 2 were observed napping on mats on the floor. LPA's then observed the licensee coming from the hallway with an additional infant in her arms going into the bathroom. Census was immediately taken to be at 7.
