The facility operates as a large family childcare home licensed with a capacity of 14 children. At the time of the inspection, there were 11 children supervised by the Licensee’s two (2) fingerprint cleared assistants. Also present during the inspection was the licensee's fingerprint cleared husband who assisted me during the inspection. LPA toured the facility with the licensee both inside and outside to conduct an health and safety inspection.
This facility is rented and operated by the licensee consisting of four bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, living room, dining room, family room, kitchen, backyard and attached two car garage. The facility’s current hours of operation are 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The kitchen, living room, family room, dining room areas are secured with gate barriers to prevent children from freely accessing those areas.
