25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Mok conducted an unannounced increased inspection today. LPA met with the Curriculum coordinator, Cynthia Elekwachi, and an interim Site Director, Thomas Ruan. The purpose of the inspection was explained to them. Per Cynthia, Sean Owens is no longer with CCFC anymore, so the facility is taken care by Thomas Ruan and Cynthia Elekwachi recently until the licensee finds someone overseeing this facility in the near future. There were 19 children with 2 staff plus Cynthia and Thomas present. The facility is located at Richmond District Neighborhood Center. The facility is a combination center. It has 2 preschool programs under 2 different addresses (30th Avenue & 31st Avenue) and license numbers at the same center because the center has different entrance for each program. The operation hours of the facility are Monday to Friday from 7:30AM to 5:30 PM. The program on 31st avenue is run in 2 big classrooms (Sunshine and Rainbow). The main entrance is locked and installed a doorbell with security camera by the doorway. Parents and visitors have to buzz for entry. The facility was clean and in order. Temperature and lighting were adequate. All toxins and harmful objects were either locked or made inaccessible to the children. There were plenty of the age-appropriate toys, books, learning material and equipment, sand/water tables and children's furniture available for children.
