On Monday, May 13th, 2024 at 2:20PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) B.Crass arrived at the home for an unannounced annual/random inspection. LPA met with licensee Dana Wallace. There were two infants and seven preschool aged children in care during the inspection. Also present in the home was the licensees fingerprint cleared husband, and fingerprint cleared assistant/mother. This family childcare home operates Monday - Friday 6AM-6PM. LPA verified that the licensee's phone number and email address on file are correct.

LPA toured the home with the licensee to conduct a health and safety inspection. The home is a single story home. LPA observed that the home is neat and clean with heating and ventilation for the safety and comfort of children in care. The home is units 311 and 315 combined. The day care occurs in the 311 section of the home. The on-limit areas include the day care room which is the front room accessed by the 311 front door, two more rooms which branch off of the main day care room, and a bathroom off of the furthest back room. The backyard is on-limits and is used for outdoor play. The off-limit areas are made inaccessible by closed and/or locked doors, gates, and visual supervision. A chair in the day care room is used for isolation of sick children, away from other children in care. LPA observed an ample supply of age-appropriate toys, equipment and activities available for children both indoors and outdoors and observed that they are in good condition. LPA did not observe any bodies of water that would be accessible to children. The licensee stated that there are no firearms on the premises.

The home is equipped with fully charged 2A10BC fire extinguisher, a working smoke detector, working telephone, and first aid kits and supplies. Licensee has proof of current CPR/First aid certificates, which expire on 10/27/2025. The last documented fire drill was conducted on 4/1/24. LPA observed all of the required forms posted. LPA reviewed children's files, staff files and obtained a copy of the current roster.
