Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Cindy Nguyen conducted an onsite inspection for the purpose of an Annual Random. LPA and director toured the facility inside and outside and the floor and yard plan (LIC 999) were verified. Census was taken in individual classrooms. The overall census observed was 15 infant children with 6 staff members. During the inspection it was determined the facility is operating within its licensed capacity and within compliance of staffing ratios. A review of the Facility Personnel Report Summary on this date indicates all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions.

Activity space for infants is separate from other age groups. The items which could pose a danger to children (detergents, cleaning compounds, and medications) were inaccessible to children. Poisons/hazardous items are not kept onsite. The toys, floors and other equipment appeared clean, safe and age appropriate for infants. A baby walker is not allowed on the premises of a child care center. There is sufficient napping equipment. The changing table is within arm’s reach of a sink and appears clean and sanitary. Food prep areas appear clean and sanitary. The facility takes measures to keep the facility free of flies, other inspects, and rodents. Food is properly stored. Bottles and food containers brought from home are properly labeled with name and date. Garbage cans containing solid waste have tight fitting lids. Firearms and other weapons are not allowed or stored on the premises. There is a working smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector and fire extinguisher in the facility.
