On 1/10/23 at 11:50 AM Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Annette Sutherland conducted an unannounced annual inspection with the Licensee. Upon arrival, LPA met with Licensee Sophie Yapo. Also, in the home was licensee’s husband Brissi Zagadou. Licensee was provided the Inspection Checklist (LIC 126). The 2-story home was toured and inspected to ensure an environment safe for the care and supervision of children. Present in the home were 3-day care children. Licensee has provided adequate space for the children to eat, sleep and play within the home. Areas used for childcare include living room, dining room, family room, bedroom #1 (located downstairs for napping), bathroom #1, detached bedroom (with bathroom), and backyard. Off limits areas include entire upstairs (4 bedrooms/2 bathroom) kitchen, and garage and are inaccessible through use of safety gates and doorknob covers. The licensee has sufficient toys and equipment available. The home has a fenced backyard available for outdoor activities. LPA noticed part of fence is broken, LPA was able to look over to next door neighbor’s yard and did not observe any bodies of water. Licensee understands that supervision is required at all times during outdoor activities. LPA conducted childcare quality management interview with the Licensee. The staircases are barricaded and the fireplace is screened.
The fire extinguisher located on the wall in the front entrance area does not meet regulations. The carbon monoxide detector/smoke detector meet requirements and are operational. All hazardous items were latched/locked and secured out of reach of children. There are no bodies of water on the property. Licensee states that there are no weapons in the home. First Aid and CPR certifications expire on 5/7/24. Licensee has required immunizations. Licensee has not completed Mandated Reporter Training and is reminded it must be completed every 2 years. Children’s records were incomplete. Facility provided a copy of roster. Fire drill log was not available for review.
