A Pre-licensing inspection visit was conducted today by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Melchisedeck Augustin. The applicants are requesting a license for a capacity 8. Services will be provided Monday - Friday; 6:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. The applicants understand that childcare must be provided in the "primary" residence of the applicants. The residence is a four bedroom/two bath home. There are two adults and zero minor(s) living in the home. All minors residing in the home must be fingerprinted within 30 days of reaching their 18th birthday and obtain a TB clearance. Applicant was reminded that all adults 18 and over living in the home, persons who provide care and supervision to children, and staff who have contact with children, 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 licensed Family Child Care Home. 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.

The floor and yard plans are verified. The two bedrooms, one bathroom, kitchen, family room, garage and backyard are off limits to the children. These areas have been made inaccessible by means of plastic doorknobs cover and children’s safety gates. The backyard contained a shed with a broken window which had sharp and jagged edges. The applicants understand they are required to correct the deficiency and the Department is required to conduct a follow up inspection prior to the backyard being on limits. The on-limit areas consist of the living room, two bedrooms, one bathroom, front yard. The home appears to be clean and orderly at this time and will remain so during childcare hours. There is a working telephone. The sharp knives, cleaning supplies, medicines, are stored out of the reach of children. Bedroom #2 is the designated Isolation Area. The applicants stated they did not store any firearm(s) or other dangerous weapon(s) in the home. The children in care will have access to age-appropriate toys and equipment.
