25 | On 10/12/2023, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Hanson Leong, made an unannounced annual visit to the Family Child Care Home listed above. The LPA was granted entry by the Licensee, Michelle Zoila Shaffer. The LPA explained the purpose of the visit to Ms. Zoila Shaffer. The LPA observed Ms. Zoila Shaffer and her assistant supervising one infant and eight preschool aged children. The LPA observed Ms. Zoila Shaffer and her assistant walking the nine children to a church where the children would be picked up. All individuals listed on the facility’s roster have been granted permission to work or be present in a childcare facility. The facility is operating within its capacity and in accordance with the required ratio of staff to children.
Day-care Areas: Kitchen area, Playroom area, Bedroom #3 (upstairs for napping only), hallway bathroom outdoor/indoor and playground area.
Off Limit Areas: Living room, Garage, and Bedrooms #1 & #2 located in the lower level of the home.
The LPA and Ms. Zoila-Shaffer both performed careful inspections of the daycare facility to look for any potential health and safety hazards. Toys and equipment that are suitable for children of the proper age range are provided at the daycare. The building has sufficient lighting and ventilation, and it is free of any defects or conditions that put children at risk. The facility is equipped with a first aid kit that is completely loaded with everything that is required for the treatment of injuries. The daycare facility is equipped with a smoke detector, a carbon monoxide detector, and a fire extinguisher that is always ready for use. Every garbage can and power outlet has been covered. Products for cleaning and washing, detergents, and any other materials that could put children in danger are stored out of the children’s reach. The LPA did not find any walkers, bouncers, or other comparable objects during today’s inspection. According to Ms. Zoila Shaffer, there are no firearms or other weapons on the premises. The LPA found a swimming pool that is gated, locked, and fenced completely in a different area of the property and completely away from the areas of care.
The LPA observed that the facility had posted all the required forms, including the facility license, Notification of Parental Rights, and Earthquake Preparedness Checklist. ***See Page 2***
