Licensing staff met with Director Cherry Gan. The facility hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 6 PM. This facility is located on the same premises as Arcadia Christian School. Licensee is requesting to change their licensed capacity by removing a preschool classroom and adding a new toddler option program to their license. LPA was provided a tour of the facility’s existing licensed areas. This facility has a total of 4 classrooms. The existing preschool classrooms are Koalas (2s), Toucans (2-3s), Kangaroos (3-4s), and Zebras (Pre-K, 4-5s). The licensee is requesting to designate the Kolas classroom for use under the toddler option program. LPA observed a wall heater within the classroom made inaccessible via a barricade. Per the Director, the toddler option program will utilize the door accessible from the Toucans classroom. During this inspection, LPA observed 12 preschoolers with two staff on the outdoor play area. The facility was observed to be operating within its licensed capacity. LPA observed the facility to have one designated bathroom area, which contained six toilets, six faucets, and a changing table within arm’s reach of a sink. Per the Director, the facility has only one designated bathroom area for the children in care. The Director plans to submit a waiver to the department requesting to share usage of the restroom using a staggered bathroom schedule. Licensing staff was guided through the outdoor activity areas. Two designated outdoor play areas (preschoolers’ and toddlers’ yards) exist. The outdoor play equipment was observed to be in good condition, free of sharp, loose, or pointed parts. Outdoor equipment was observed to be age-appropriate. The outdoor activity space surface was observed to be maintained in a safe condition and free of hazards. There is adequate shade available outdoors via canopies. LPA observed cushioning material available around and/or under climbing equipment to absorb a fall. LPA did not observe any violations or hazards outdoors.
