Upon arrival, there were 6 children, 2 teachers, and 1 assistant in Room A and 5 children and 2 teachers in Room B, which is compliant with the facility license capacity and Title 5 ratio requirements. LPA observed all required postings near the entrance to the facility. Hours of operation for the facility are Monday – Friday, 8:00AM-4:30PM.
Indoor areas of the facility were inspected by the LPA today and observed to be clean, orderly, and safe for the day care children. LPA observed sufficient age-appropriate materials, toys, and play equipment in the facility. Furniture is in good condition and safe for children. The facility provides half day (AM/PM) programs so children do not take naps. The floors were clean and free of tripping hazards. Drinking water is readily available for children in the facility via water dispensers and disposable cups. Staff and children’s bathrooms are clean, sanitary, and operable. There is a separate staff bathroom, not utilized by the children, which an isolated child can use if necessary. There is a working telephone in the facility.
The outdoor area of the facility was inspected and observed to be fenced in. LPA observed play equipment was in good condition, age-appropriate, and has sufficient resilient materials (tanbark) to absorb falls.
