A tour of the home, inside and outside, as shown on the facility sketch was done. This is a two-story home. The areas of the home that day-care children will have access to are the day care room, dining room, downstairs hall bathroom, living room, one bedroom, and the backyard. The remainder of the home is off limits and made inaccessible by child safety devices (i.e. safety latches and/or plastic doorknob spinners). There is a safety gate at the bottom of the stairs to prevent children from accessing stairs and second-floor of the home. Applicant and one other adult are the only adults that reside in the home. The LIS 536 was signed indicating that the adults living in the home and/or providing care and supervision to children are background cleared. LPA observed safe indoor play areas, child safety plugs in unused electrical outlets, were all observed. Fire extinguisher, smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors and first aid kit are operable and in place. There are no firearms or ammunition at this home.

LPA discussed the practice of fire and disaster drills at least every 6 months and to document the date, time and number of children present. There are pets at this home.
