An Annual Random inspection was conducted at the facility by Licensing Program Analysts (LPA) Dean Thompson. Upon entry into the family room at 11:45 am, LPA observed a total of six children in care along with licensee Nelida Parody. Four out of six children were observed to be infants. Licensee was not operating within Staffing Ratio and Capacity compliance. Facility Day care hours are 7:00 AM - 5:30 PM, Monday through Friday.

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.

During today’s inspection, LPA 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 baby safety locks. The childcare area consists of family room redesigned as a play room and hallway bathroom. LPA observed toys hanging and attached to the side of the crib. LPA also observed three pacifiers inside one crib. Licensee was reminded each infant should have their own pacifier while in care as well as their own crib.

There is a working carbon monoxide, smoke detector, and a fire extinguisher in the home that meet statutory and State Fire Marshall standards. Licensee was unable to provide proof showing fire and disaster drills are being conducted and documented at least once every six months.

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.
