Per director, children nap while they are in preschool. Children sleep in cots. Per director, cots are wiped down and stored in the classroom’s closet. Facility has a cubby space area where children were observed to have their own cubby, with each individual child’s name on it and picture. Cubbies are used for storing blankets, and extra clothes in case of any emergency. Per director, parents provide the sheets and blankets and sheets and blankets are taken home weekly for wash.
Childcare center is equipped with a fully charged fire extinguisher and first aid kit. LPA observed Carbon monoxide detector and smoke detector in the facility. Carbon monoxide detector was tested during visit and was observed to be working. LPA was unable to test smoke alarm, due to alarm being in high ceiling. Storage for children's belongings is inside the facility. Children's cubbies for storing their food are labeled with children's individual name on it. LPA did not observe any accessible poisons or chemicals in the classrooms.
