On 11/3/22, at 8:45 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Elvin Baddley conducted an unannounced One Year Required Inspection of the abovementioned Family Child Care Home (FCCH). LPA met with Damaris Miner, Licensee of the FCCH and explained the purpose of the inspection. LPA, in the company of Licensee toured the interior and exterior of the FCCH. The FCCH’s activity room, family room, backyard and hall restroom are used for child care services, while upper story of the home is excluded from child care and barricaded by a child safety gate at the base of the stairwell.
