On March 4, 2020 at 2:00 p.m. Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Leilani Curtis and Licensing Program Manager (LPM) Monica Cuddy visited the facility to conduct an annual random inspection. Upon arrival LPA and LPM met with Director Tamara Holthaus and proceeded to tour the facility. Also present were a total of 4 children in the following classrooms:

Classroom #1: 4 children with staff Sari Morris and staff Jocelyne Hernandez.

Appropriate ratios and capacity were observed. There are no bodies of water or weapons at this facility. Toys are safe and do not have sharp points, edges or splinters, or made of small parts that can be pulled off. There is sufficient infant napping equipment. Infant changing tables have padded surface no less than one inch thick, covered with washable vinyl, and raised sides at least 3 inches high. There are no walkers, bouncy seats, exersaucers or jumpers in the room. All infants including those napping in cribs are under visual observation at all times. Rooms have adequate heating, lighting, and ventilation. Solid waste storage vessels, including moveable bins, have tight-fitting covers on, and are in good repair. Disinfectants, hazardous items and medications are inaccessible to children through latches and locks or placed on high surfaces. The infant indoor and outdoor activity space is physically separate from the space used by other day care children. Outdoor play area is fenced with sufficient material for cushioning. The outdoor area has canopies used for shade. The infant room has a refrigerator used for infant food storage which is properly labeled by child name and date. Individual Needs and Services Plans were reviewed. Of the four children present today, three of them did not have a current or updated Needs and Services Plan. Drinking water is readily accessible inside and outside the classroom.
