Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Mahnaz (Nancy) Malek conducted a case management inspection of the facility for the purpose of decreasing capacity by taking two rooms off of the preschool license and increase the infant license. LPA met with assistant director, Nancy Echeverria and director, Stephanie Strand who gave a tour of the facility to LPA. Currently the facility is licensed for 128 preschool children ages 2 to 6 years old in 7 rooms. LPA observed a total of 7 staff with 57 children in these rooms.

A review of the Facility Personnel Report Summary on this date indicates that all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions.

The facility has requested to provide care and supervision to 100 preschool children ages 2 to 6 years old in 5 rooms, Monday to Friday from 6:30 am to 6:00 pm. Children are dropped off, signed in and out electronically at the entrance of the building to go to assigned rooms. The facility has met all the posting requirements. All the classrooms were measured.
The indoor activity space measurement for the current requested capacity is as follows:
Preschool Room # 1 is: 481.12 square feet
Preschool Room # 2 is: 1022.05 square feet
Preschool Room # 3 is: 706.79 square feet
Preschool Room # 4 is: 561.95 square feet
Preschool Room # 5 is: 602.48 square feet
