An inspection was made to the facility by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Mary Trinh. The facility file was reviewed prior to this visit. A review of staff records indicates that all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions. Licensee was reminded that all adults 18 and over working in the facility, including employees and volunteers, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a licensed Child Care Center. A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day up to $500.00 maximum per day/per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.
Operating hours are 7:30am – 5:30pm, Mon-Fri. The facility was toured inside and outside and the floor and yard plan were verified. Activity space for infants is separate from other age groups. Infant and toddlers each have separate classrooms. The items which could pose a danger to children (detergents and cleaning compounds) were inaccessible to children. The Director stated that poisons are not stored on site and none were observed. The facility was free of flies, insects and rodents. The toys, floors, and other equipment and surfaces appeared clean, toxic free, safe for infants and in good condition. There is uncontaminated drinking water available to children both indoors and outdoors. The infant changing tables have at least 3" sides and sanitary vinyl pads that are at least 1" thick. The toddler bathroom and hand washing area appeared to be in safe and sanitary operating condition. There was sufficient napping equipment (cribs and cots) available that meet requirements. A current menu was posted. Food prep areas are clean. Food is properly stored and refrigerated as needed. Garbage cans containing solid waste have tight fitting lids.
