On February 5, 2025, at 9:30 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Luigi Gargaro, conducted an unannounced annual required inspection and met with the licensee, Maria Sanchez. LPA disclosed the purpose of the inspection and was granted entry into the facility by the Licensee. One child and two (2) staff, including Licensee Sanchez, were present in the facility during this inspection. Ms. Sanchez speaks limited English but her helper niece, Alejandra Asuncion, was able to assist with translation today. This facility is a one floor, three bedroom, two bathroom house. Licensee accompanied LPA inside and out of the facility during this inspection.

The following areas used for child care are: the living room and the day care bathroom. Off limits areas include the kitchen, the three home bedrooms and the garage. The kitchen is made off limits with an installed safety gate at the entrance area from the living room to the kitchen. The first two home bedrooms are made inaccessible with locking door handles. The third bedroom which contains the second home bathroom, that is also off limits, is made that way with a child safety gate that is installed in front of its entryway. The garage is made off limits as the only access from the home is through a door in the off limits third bedroom.

The fire extinguisher met requirements. All hazardous items were inaccessible to children. The licensee has toys, play equipment and materials available. The licensee has a fenced backyard that is off limits to the day care and is made that way with a door lock and a door knob cover that is installed on the exit door leading out from the off limits third bedroom. It also has gates on the two alleyway entrances that lead to the back yard from the front yard.

The home has a fenced front yard available for outdoor activities. No bodies of water observed on the premises during the inspection. Licensee stated there are no weapons in the home. A review of staff records on this date indicates that all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse clearances or exemptions.
