Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Melanie Otsuji made an announced PRELICENSING visit in response to an application for a DROP-IN PRESCHOOL; the drop in status is determined by the lack of outdoor activity space and directs the center to allow children to attend no more than 5 hours a day and/or 15 hours a week. LPA met with Applicants, Vaishnavee Ragavan & Kaushika Saravana Prabhu.

This program will be conducted in five classrooms. There are 3 toilets and 2 sinks available to children. The staff will utilize a stall within the women's restroom. Isolation room for sick children will be located in classroom 5. The classrooms are furnished with age-appropriate equipment, with adequate storage and cubbies for all. Drinking water is available to children by way of bottles from home and a refill station in the facility. Facility will provide AM/PM snacks. Naps will not be taken in this 1/2 day program. All required forms are posted. Sign in/out will be used which has enough space for date, time and full legal signature. The directors will be Kaushika Saravana Prabhu and Vaishnavee Ragavan, and a complete director packet was provided to CCLD. There is a working telephone on site.

Interior activity space: 1650.38 sq. ft., which will allow for 27 preschool children.

No outdoor space is available for play; to amend for that, the capacity for this Drop-In center is determined by the requirement of 60 square foot per child. A waiver has been requested by the Applicants.
There are no health or safety risks posed by this facility. The Fire Department has approved the capacity of 27.
