Present today are 8 children supervised by three staff. The facility complies with the staff-children ratios today. All staff members have criminal clearance on file. The days and operations hours are Monday - Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. During the inspection, the Director and LPA thoroughly examined the physical facility to identify any potential health and safety hazards. The facility has a manual sign-in/out record system, and upon review, it showed that all parents' signatures matched and accounted for the number of children present. The facility is in good condition, and the temperature and ventilation levels are properly maintained. Age-appropriate toys and educational materials are available in each classroom. The furniture is sturdy and well-maintained. LPA observed that each child has their own cubby available with their name labeled.

The Director states that the Center currently does not have any children who require medication. However, in cases where medication is required, it is stored on a high shelf that is inaccessible to children. The toilets and handwashing sinks are in good working condition and regularly sanitized. Lastly, LPA observed no bodies of water on the premises.

The facility has been granted an outdoor waiver by the Department to allow a maximum of eight children to utilize the playground at any given time. LPA observed that the outdoor waiver was posted accordingly. The outdoor play area is well maintained, ensuring it is clean and free of any clutter that may pose a risk to the children's safety. Moreover, the playground is securely fenced. Per the Director, the play structures are regularly checked for any potential damage or loose parts. Additionally, soft cushioning material is placed beneath the play structures to minimize the chances of injuries from accidental falls. LPA also reminded the Director to check and clear any debris or harmful materials from the playground before use in accordance with the regulations.

During the inspection, LPA reviewed records pertaining to children and personnel. The records for each child were found to be complete, including their names, addresses, and authorized representative telephone numbers. Additionally, each child's file contains information about their immunization record, medical assessment, and admission agreement. Staff members' records showed that all individuals requiring caregiver background checks had undergone criminal records and child abuse index clearances or exemptions. The director possesses valid CPR certificates, and staff maintain up-to-date immunization records. LPA reviewed the educational qualifications of the staff members and confirmed that everyone had completed the required ECE units. Fire and earthquake drills are conducted at least once every six months.
