On 12/09/24 at 10:15 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Luigi Gargaro, conducted an unannounced annual required inspection and met with co-licensee, Xuan Ta. LPA disclosed the purpose of the inspection and was granted entry into the facility by the co-licensee. Co-licensee speaks very limited English but analyst was able to conduct the visit with assistance from the Language Link Translation Service. Three (3) children including the licensee's grandson were in the home today. However, the licensee's grandson is not part of the daty care as he is under the direct supervision at all times of his mother, the cleared and associated Christine Nguyen, who lives in the home. This facility is a one floor, five bedroom, two bathroom house. Licensee accompanied LPA inside of the facility during this inspection.

The following areas used for child care are: the living room, the family room and the day care bathroom. Off limits areas are the kitchen five home bedrooms, the second bathroom and the garage. The kitchen was formerly a for use area but now has been made off limits with installed safety gated at both entrances. The day care bathroom is off the kitchen, however, licensee states she escorts children to the restroom when needed. The first two bedrooms and the second bathroom are in a separate portion of the home and are made off limits with an entry door with a door knob cover on it. The remaining three bedrooms are made off limits with a combination of locking door knobs or door knob covers that are installed on their respective door handles. The garage is made of limits with an entry way door that leads into it that has a highly placed dead bolt lock on it.

The fire extinguisher and combination smoke and carbon monoxide detector met requirements. Most hazardous items were inaccessible to children. The licensee has toys, play equipment and materials available. The home has a fenced backyard but only a patio portion that is gated off is available for children for outdoor activities. The remainder of the yard will be off limits and will not be able to be accessed by the children due to the installed gating which has a lock on it.

No bodies of water observed on the premises during the inspection. Co-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.
