On the date and time listed, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Perla Ordones and Samuel Lopez arrived at the facility for the purposes of conducting a case management inspection regarding the outside patios which was disclosed to the department to have been installed without permit(s). Licensee submitted an application for an increase in capacity which was also addressed during the visit. LPAs toured the facility, inside and out, records were reviewed, and the following was observed and/or discussed:

Normal days and hours of operation are: Monday – Friday; 06:00AM – 06:00PM.

OFF-LIMIT AREAS INCLUDE: Entire second floor, garage, side patios, and the backyard.

During this visit, LPAs inspected the right hand patio area where Licensee indicated children play outside. In the outside patio, which is located to the right of the home, LPAs observed several plastic play structures, several ridable toy cars, and other children’s toys outside. Also, prior to entering the facility, children could be heard playing outside, underneath the patio. LPAs asked Licensee if they had the required permits on file for the patio structure. Licensee stated that they did not have the required permits. Due to Licensee not having the required permits necessary for the patio structure, the on-limits patio area poses an immediate risk to children in care. Licensee agreed to make the patios off-limits until the required permits were obtained. Licensee submitted a new facility sketch to LPAs.

· The facility is operating within the licensed capacity and appropriate ratios.
· Appropriate fire extinguisher, smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector are present and were tested by the Licensee during this inspection. Fire extinguisher, smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector are in working order.
