32 | LPA observed the diaper changing tables in each classroom to be at least one inch thick, with raised sides of at least 3-inches, and within arm’s reach of the sink. LPA observed changing areas to be clean. LPA observed that the facility has diapers and wipes available in each classroom near the changing tables for children in care. There are age-appropriate toys and supplies for children in each classroom and are in good repair. Each child was observed to have their own cubby to store personal belongings. All toilets and hand washing facilities are in safe and sanitary operating condition. Drinking water is available in form of personal water bottles that are also taken outside when needed. The facility provides additional water which is dispensed in each classroom for children in care.
The classroom furniture and equipment were inspected for good repair, free of sharp, loose, or pointed parts. All indoor classrooms were inspected to ensure that the floors have a surface that is safe and clean. All materials and surfaces accessible to children are toxic free.
Outdoor playground was observed to be fenced and was inspected. Outdoor equipment is in safe condition, free of sharp, loose or pointed parts. The surface of the outdoor activity space is maintained in a safe condition and is free of hazards. There is adequate shade in the play yard.
At this time, the Director’s office is used as an isolation area. Parents are contacted immediately. There is also a mat available if needed.
Each infant brings their own meals from home. There is a kitchen area in each classroom and LPA observed lunch/meals for children in care stored properly, labeled with the child’s name and or refrigerated. LPA inspected the refrigerator where the children's milk and food is stored. LPA observed all bottles and containers to have the child’s name on them. However, LPA observed that not all bottles with milk and food containers have a date label of when the milk/food was provided. LPA explained to the director that the facility has to ensure that all infant meals must have the current date of when the meal was provided by their parent. Per director, parents provide milk and solid foods daily and they are disposed at the end of the day if left behind. The kitchen area was observed to be clean, and the cleaning compounds/solutions were found to be away from the food. Storage areas are clean, free of litter, rubbish, and rodents/vermin. All storage containers for solid waste, including moveable bins, have tight fitting covers on and are in good repair. Disinfectants, cleaning solutions, poisons and other items that are dangerous to children are stored in an area inaccessible to children.
