On 10/25/2021, at 9:00 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPAs) Alize Tillery and Mai Lor met with Director Mallory Seifert for the purpose of an unannounced case management visit. Director requests to increase the capacity from 12 to 21 infant children ages 4-18 months. The facility’s hours of operation are 7:00am to 6:00pm. LPA received the fire clearance on 10/11/2021. Upon arrival, there were 6 infant children, supervised by 4 staff.

A health and safety inspection was conducted in all areas accessible to children. LPAs reminded Director to inform licensing prior to switching rooms for the different components in the facility. LPAs requested that Director submit a new facility sketch to match the current layout and update the room names. LPAs re-measured the Sunflower infant room. The two infant classrooms (Baby Bees and Sunflower classrooms) and indoor Infant Courtyard space measures at 713.2944 square feet. This does not accommodate the requested capacity of 21 children. Individual measurements are recorded on the Capacity Worksheet (LIC 9024). LPAs counted 9 available cribs. A maximum census of 9 infants under 12 months will be allowed at once due to available cribs. LPA observed sufficient amount of furniture, toys, and play equipment in the classrooms. Toxic and hazardous items are inaccessible to children. LPAs observed medications are inaccessible and stored appropriately. Facility uses a book for sign in/out. LPAs observed required positing at entrance of facility. There are 8 toilets, 2 potty chairs and 9 sinks available to children, and a separate private restroom for staff is available. Children who become ill during the day will be isolated in the office area and will use the staff restroom, if necessary.

There is one outdoor area on the property for infants. The outdoor play area is fenced with a wrought iron fence that is at least four feet tall. LPA observed a sufficient amount of equipment and toys. There are no bodies of water on the premises. The yard is separated into two sections with a wood fence, designating one side for the preschool and one side to be shared with infant and toddler. There are shaded areas supplied by trees and overhangs. Director stated they will use a water pitcher and cups outdoors.

There is a waiver on file allowing the facility to share the outdoor space with the Toddler children, under the Preschool License. Individual measurements are recorded on the Capacity Worksheet (LIC 9024).
