On 11/1/2024 Licensing Program Analysts (LPA)s Amelia Morales and Laticia Thompson conducted a case management during today’s visit. Upon entrance into the Center, LPAs were greeted by Applicant Vlada Matsenko (she has a pending application for a license for a change of ownership). Applicant then guided LPAs on a tour of the downstairs, upstairs, and outside of the facility; 20 children were observed in care.

During the walk through outside at 11:45 am LPAs observed a child #1 unsupervised in an off limits storage room. The child was inside a Cozy Coupe Ride On and was playing alone in the storage room. Staff #1 was near the ramp by the kitchen door, attending to other children. Staff #2 was by the jungle gym attending to other children. Both staff members outside did not have visual view/observation of the child in the storage room.

Upon further inspection of the open door storage rooms there was a metal cabinet that had cleaning solutions inside that did not have latches making it accessible to the children in care.

While inspecting the playground area outside at 12:45 pm near the children's washing area LPAs observed another metal cabinet that had cleaning solutions inside that did not have latches making it accessible to the children in care.
