25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) William Chancellor conducted an unannounced annual inspection on December 19, 2025, at 11:31 AM. LPA met with Director Abby Lewis, who provided a tour of the preschool program. This facility operates as a combination childcare center, where both the infant and school-age components were audited during today’s annual inspection.
During the inspection, several key facility items were observed and updated where necessary. These included the facility's license, the Emergency Disaster Plan (LIC610) and Earthquake Preparedness Checklist (LIC9148), the Parent’s Rights Poster (PUB393), Personal Rights (LIC613A), the Child Car Seat Law notice, and the menu. The facility was found to be operating within the limits stated on its license, and staff-to-child ratios were observed to be lower than the required 1:12. Classrooms were adequately equipped with age- and size-appropriate furniture and materials, ensuring a safe and hazard-free environment. The facility representative confirmed that no weapons were present on the premises.
There were no accessible bodies of water on-site. The director is aware that any wading pools or similar products must be emptied immediately after use and stored in an upright position. Drinking water was available both indoors and outdoors through individual water bottles or disposable cups. LPA confirmed that Lead testing was conducted on September 20, 2022. LPA reminded Director that lead testing must be conducted every five years from initial testing date and is due before September 20, 2027. Testing is only required for faucets used for consumption or food prep, not hand washing.
Medications, disinfectants, cleaning solutions, and other hazardous materials were stored in locations inaccessible to children, while poisons and toxins were securely locked away. The facility’s floors were observed to be safe and clean, and bathroom facilities were sanitary and in proper working condition. The playgrounds were enclosed by a secure, six-foot-tall wrought iron fence surrounding the perimeter of the center. Outdoor activity areas contained age- and size-appropriate equipment in good condition.
