32 | Bedroom #1/Dining Room/Living Room: The designated playroom contains adequate age-appropriate toys, books, games, napping mats, and diaper-changing equipment. LPA observed that the toys and furniture were appropriate for the children's ages. The carpets and materials in the area were in good condition.
Children's Bathroom: The bathroom used by the children is located down the hall to the right. The bathroom was clean, sanitized, and in good repair. The sink and toilet were operable, and the bathroom was free of hazardous items.
Kitchen/Dining Room (off-limits): The kitchen was inspected to ensure that dangerous items were inaccessible to children. Child safety latches were installed on cabinet doors and drawers. Sharp utensils, poisons, and medications were secured, with knives stored in a butcher block in the gated kitchen.
Backyard: The backyard, where the children play, is fully enclosed by a gate. LPA observed a water fountain in the area, which currently does not contain any water. LPA shared this observation with the assistant, Savannah. Additionally, the outdoor storage must be secured with a lock to ensure it is inaccessible to the children in care. A designated garden area is present, where LPA noted several accessible garden tools that need to be made inaccessible to children. The outdoor air conditioning unit is enclosed by a wooden fence. LPA also observed age-appropriate outdoor toys, and both sides of the home are secured with side gates, making them inaccessible to children.
Other:
The AC/Heating unit is located on the right side of the home and is blocked by barrels, making it inaccessible to children. There are no bodies of water in the home. All unused electrical outlets are plugged and inaccessible to children. The licensee, who is enrolled in the Food Program, provides breakfast, lunch, snacks, and sometimes dinner. |
