On 8/29/2023, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Crystal Green and Carolyn Tuba conducted an unannounced case management licensee-initiated inspection. LPAs met with Child Development Program Director, Rosie Ducoing. The preschool program hours of operation are Monday to Friday 8:00am to 6pm.

This facility is located on the campus of Bassett High School. There were no children present during this inspection. This is a preschool program with a toddler component that is currently licensed to operate 4 classrooms, which are classrooms 1, 2, 706 (Toddler) and classroom 3 (Preschool). Child Development Program Director has requested to switch preschoolers from classroom 3 to classroom 706 and toddlers from classroom 706 to classroom 3. LPAs inspected classrooms 1,2,3 and 706 and measured both indoor and outdoor space. LPAs observed 2 toilets and 2 sinks in classroom 1,2,3. Classroom 706 has 1 child size toilet and 1 child size sink, however there is a staff bathroom that can be converted into a child’s bathroom by using a smaller toilet seat and step stool to reach the sink. The staff have an adult bathroom they may utilize which is located in the hallway by classrooms 2 and 3. There are 2 playgrounds and one is designated for the toddlers and the other is designated for the preschool which is separated by a chain link fence.

During this inspection measurements were obtained both indoor and outdoor to determine capacity.

Classroom 706 (Preschool) measured for a capacity of 27 children

Classroom 1 (Toddler) measured for a capacity of 20 children

Classroom 2 (Toddler) measured for a capacity of 19 children

Classroom 3 (Toddler) measured for a capacity of 20 children

A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.

Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the Child Development Program Director, Rosie Ducoing.
