On December 29, 2022 Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Lauren Scott and David Nguyen met with Principal, Tammy Wells for the purpose of an unannounced Annual inspection. There were 20 children present at the start of today's inspection. LPA toured the facility inside and out.

LPA observed a changing table within arm's reach of the sink. There are adequate toys and equipment available for children. Outdoor play area was toured, the play structure for the toddlers appeared to be in good repair, there is sufficient cushioning (artificial grass) under the play structure to prevent the fall.

LPA observed proper storage of refrigerated bottles which were dated and labeled with children's names. LPA reviewed the sign in/out book and observed that the children are properly signed in.

LPA discussed the safe sleep regulations with licensee and discussed the Child Care Licensing Safe Sleep webpage at https://www.cdss.ca.gov/inforesources/child-care-licensing/public-information-and-resources/safe-sleep as an additional resource. LPA also informed licensee of the importance of checking for recalled infant devices on the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) website at https://www.cpsc.gov/ and recommended they register all infant devices with the CPSC to be notified of any recalls on their purchased equipment. In addition, LPA discussed the infant sleep regulations with licensee. LPA observed 15min infant napping logs for infants 24 months and under.
