On September 27, 2022, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Joseph Pacheco and Cynthia Brannon conducted an announced prelicensing inspection and met with Director, Elisha Hawkins. LPAs explained the reason of the inspection and a tour of the center was conducted both inside and outside. This is a new facility and the applicant is requesting 57 preschool, ages 2-6 years old. Based on today’s inspection LPA observed that facility has 5 toilets and 3 sinks which will not meet the requirements for the requested capacity. Licensee is now requesting a capacity of 45 preschool children based on the amount of toilets and sinks observed. This program will operate year round Monday – Friday, 6:30am – 6:00pm. This program will operate in three classrooms, Classroom 2, Classroom 3 and Classroom 4. Licensee is Sunny Grove Education Corporation. LPAs observed alarms on the doors in Classrooms 2, 3 and 4 which lead to the outside of the facility. Parents will bring their children into the classroom and sign them in, staff conduct daily health checks and conduct a risk assessment.

There are enough tables, chairs, cots, and plenty of toys for children to play. LPA also reminded Director not to store anything on top of high bookcases/storage cabinets that could potentially fall on children. There is a working carbon monoxide detector inside the classrooms.
