A review of staff records prior to this inspection indicates that all facility staff and other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions.

No children were observed left in any parked vehicle. The facility’s operating hours are 7:00 am - 5:30 pm, Monday through Friday, year round. The floor plan submitted by the licensee was reviewed and verified. The off-limits areas of the home are the master bathroom, side yards, and garage. These were made inaccessible by use of key locked doors, gates, and doorknob locks. The home was observed to be clean and orderly and was at a comfortable indoor temperature. There were safe toys and equipment available for children. The licensee stated there is a working telephone in the home. The licensee’s pediatric CPR and First Aid certifications were reviewed and expire in 10/2020.
