25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Wisehart conducted a licensee initiated case management inspection in regard to an application for increased capacity that was received by the Department. The licensee had requested a capacity increase to 14 children. The facility operates Monday 7:00 am to Friday 5 pm.
At 8:45 am, the LPA toured the facilities indoor and outdoor areas. The LPA reviewed the indoor and outdoor floor plan and licensee made updates. Children have access to the Family room; Living room; Dining room and hallway bathroom and the Kitchen. The off-limit areas are the master bedroom/bathroom; two bedrooms and two bathroom and laundry room which are made inaccessible via door locks and gates. The outdoor play area is a fenced porch. The front yard grass area, if used as a play area will require 100% visual supervision which the license indicated she understood. The licensee and aid were supervising 2 children and was operating within the limitations of her current licensee ratio's. The LPA reviewed the ratios for a large license and the licensee acknowledged she understood the ratio requirements. The LPA also reviewed Provider Notice 22-10 issued March 18, 2022 Updated Guidance for Child Care Providers Regarding Coronavirus Disease.
Based on the space/accommodations available at this facility and the fire marshal granting their approval on 5/19/22 for 14 children, the capacity increase request is granted. LPA will process this capacity increase and mail an updated license to reflect this capacity change to 14 children. An exit interview was conducted with Licensee.
