The outdoor activity space was inspected for compliance. The playground was enclosed by a fence at least five feet in height. The surface of the outdoor activity space was well maintained and free of hazards. The artificial turf cushioning material commercially produced for the purpose around the climbing equipment, structures, slides and other similar equipment appeared to be enough to absorbs falls. Drinking water in the outdoor activity space is also provided by filter water dispensers and children’s personal water bottles. The outdoor equipment and toys were in good repair and free of sharp edges. There are no bodies of water present at the facility. The facility grounds were safe, sanitary and in good repair.

Beginning September 1, 2016, Health and Safety (H&S) 1597.622 states, a person shall not be employed or volunteer at a childcare center if he or she has not been immunized against influenza, pertussis, and measles. Proof of immunization against pertussis, measles for 5 out of 5 staff were reviewed and within compliance.

Beginning March 31, 2018, H&S Code 1596.8662 requires all directors and employees to complete mandated reporting training, and to renew the training every two years. 5 out of 6 staff had Mandated Reporter Training certificates. One staff member’s Mandated Reporter training certification was expired but completed it during LPA’s visit. At least 1 staff member present possess current EMSA approved Pediatric CPR/First Aid certifications, which expires 03/2024.

Children's records were reviewed, and there was a separate, complete and current record for each child. A random sample of 5 children's files were reviewed for documentation of the child’s name, address, and telephone number of the child’s authorized representative and of relatives or others that can assume responsibility for the child if the authorized representative cannot be reached when necessary (LIC 700) and a medical assessment. In the areas reviewed the children’s files were found to be in full compliance. Sign in/out procedure was reviewed for compliance. The facility uses an application called Bright Wheel that parents use to sign the children in/out. The facility also has a paper sheet for parents who may have electronic issues.
