On 7/19/23, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Joseph Pacheco conducted an unannounced Case Management inspection and met with Director, Meredith Lawrence. LPA explained the reason for the inspection and a tour of the center was conducted both inside and outside. The licensee is requesting an increase of capacity from 20 infant children to 21. This program currently operates year round from 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM and utilizes classrooms 1 and 3. Parents provide all food for meals and snacks. Parents also supply diapers, baby wipes and baby formula. Facility has food available in the event a parent forgets to provide their child with food. Facility does not have a kitchen on site to prepare meals. Ill children and staff will utilize the staff bathroom labeled boys bathroom which is only utilized by staff and located outside all of the classrooms. Ill children will be isolated in the director’s office until picked up by their parent or legal guardian. Cleaning supplies are kept in inaccessible areas in Classrooms 1 and 3.
Both classrooms appeared to be clean and free of toxins. LPA observed that the furniture and equipment in the classrooms appeared to be safe and in good condition. LPA reminded Director to anchor cubbies in all classrooms so they can’t be tipped over. LPA observed that the center has a working carbon monoxide detector installed. LPA observed that there are plenty of tables and chairs, sleeping cots and cribs. Classroom items and toys appeared to be age appropriate.
Room measurements in all classrooms were taken and reviewed with Director. The total inside preschool area of all three classrooms measured to an approximate 1,394 square feet which will accommodate the requested capacity of 21 infant children. Facility utilizes water faucets from the sinks in the three classrooms to fill children’s water bottles they bring from home. Facility utilizes a drinking fountain to refill the water bottles during outside activities. The outside square footage measured on 12/30/21 to an approximate 2,185 square feet which will accommodate the requested capacity of 21 infant children. Outside toys and equipment appeared to be age appropriate. Adequate shade is available in the outdoor activity area. Licensee is utilizing mature trees for shade. There is no high climbing equipment in the outside play yard.
A fire clearance for 21 infant children was received and granted by the City of Turlock Fire Department on 6/27/23.
