25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) William Chancellor conducted an unannounced annual inspection on December 19, 2025, at 8:15 AM. LPA met with Director Abby Lewis, who provided a tour of the center. This is a combination childcare center, where both the preschool and school-age components were audited for an annual inspection on today’s date. A tour of both the indoor and outdoor areas of the facility was conducted, and the following observations were noted.
The required postings, including the facility license, Emergency Disaster Plan (LIC610), Earthquake Preparedness Checklist (LIC9148), Parent’s Rights Poster (PUB393), Personal Rights (LIC613A), Child Car Seat Law, and menus, were observed to be up to date and appropriately displayed. The facility is operating within the capacity limits as stated on its license.
During the inspection, staff-to-child ratios were observed; with a 1:4 or less. Classrooms contained age and size-appropriate furniture and equipment, free of hazards. Director confirmed that no weapons are present on the premises, and there are no accessible bodies of water. Director confirmed and is aware that any wading pools or similar items must be emptied immediately after use and stored upright. Drinking water is available both indoors and outdoors, through filtered water. LPA confirmed that Lead testing was conducted in September 2022.
Medications are stored in an area that is inaccessible to children, with the specific location noted. Hazardous items, including disinfectants, cleaning solutions, and other dangerous substances, are stored out of children’s reach, while poisons and toxins are securely locked away. The floors were observed to be clean, safe, and well-maintained. Changing tables are within arm’s reach of a sink, have a minimum one-inch thick padding, and feature raised sides of at least three inches covered in washable vinyl or plastic. Proper hand washing procedures were observed before and after diapering and feeding.
