A Required 3-Year inspection was made to the facility by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Melchisedeck Augustin. The facility file was reviewed prior to this visit. A review of the personnel report on file indicates that all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions. The Facility Representative was reminded that all adults 18 and over, including employees and volunteers, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a Child Care Center. A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day up to $500.00 maximum per day/per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.


During today's inspection, infant staffing ratios were being met and children were being directly supervised by staff, and the facility was operating within the licensed capacity. Two teachers and two Aides were supervising six children in Infant and Toddler classrooms. Operating hours are 6:30am - 6:00pm, Mon-Fri. The facility was toured inside and outside, and the floor and yard plan were verified. Activity space for infants is separate from other age groups. The items which could pose a danger to children (detergents and cleaning compounds) were inaccessible to children. LPA did not observe any poison(s). The facility was free of flies, insects, and rodents. The toys, floors, and other equipment and surfaces appeared clean, toxic free, safe for infants and in good condition. There is drinking water available to children both indoors and outdoors. The infant changing tables have sides that are raised at least 3" and sanitary vinyl pads that are at least 1" thick and a sink that is within an arm’s reach. There is sufficient napping equipment (cribs and cots) available that met the requirements. The Center Director’s statement confirmed some infants in the toddler classroom did not have the ability to climb out of a crib but did take a nap on the cots. A current menu and Daily Schedule were posted in each classroom and food prep areas are clean. Infant bottles were labelled with each child’s names, were properly stored and refrigerated as needed. The playground was free of hazards. The playground equipment and surface areas appeared in safe condition. (Continue to LIC 809-C)

There was at least one working carbon monoxide detector and functional smoke detector, and a full charged fire extinguisher rated at least 2A10BC. There were no bodies of water observed. Center Director stated no weapons were stored on site and none were observed.

According to the facility’s disaster drill log, the facility conducted and documented a fire drill on 11/02/23.

Four (S1-S4) staff records were reviewed at 9:39am, which reflected S1 was missing Health Screening (LIC 503), S2 was missing Evaluation of Teacher Qualifications (LIC 9095), and S4 was missing evidence of immunity against Measles.

C2-C5’s Infant Needs and Service Plan were not updated within the past three months. According to the Director’s statement, she did not know the facility was required to conduct 15-minute checks for all enrollees under 24 months old, and the Director did not furnish evidence to prove 15 minute checks had been conducted for C1, C3-C5, as well as for all infants in the toddler classroom.
