On January 16th, 2025 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Mandie Goodwin met with Licensee Akilah Block, for the purpose of an unannounced required 1-year inspection. No other adults were present in the home. All individuals subject to criminal background review have obtained a criminal record clearance. LPA observed there were four children including 2 infants during inspection. Facility days and hours of operation are Monday-Friday 6:00am until 1:00am the following day. Overnight care was discussed.

Licensee guided LPA on a tour of the facility and a health and safety inspection was conducted in all areas accessible to children. The off-limits areas include the entire upstairs and the garage.

Per Licensee, there are no weapons in the home. No bodies of water were observed today. Toxic and hazardous items are inaccessible to children. Outdoor play space is fenced and in good repair.
