This is a change of location. Prior facility number is: 566208880

On August 16, 2023 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Susana Martinez conducted an announced pre-licensing inspection. LPA met with site supervisor Sherrie Damas and advised her of the purpose for the inspection. Together with the site supervisor, LPA toured the facility inside and outside. At the time of inspection there were no children in care. No bodies of water were observed.

The center plans on operating M-F 8:15 AM- 12:15 PM with an extended hours option from 7 AM- 5:30 PM. Center will not be preparing any meals on site, children will bring lunch and snacks from home. The center plans on utilizing 7 classrooms for child care. Rooms 1-4 will be utilized for children ages 4-5 and rooms labeled K1- K3 will be utilized for children ages 2-3. The center uses Procare App for sign-in, sign-out and communication.

Each of the classrooms will have age-appropriate toys and furniture readily accessible for children in care. Toilets and sinks were found to be in sanitary operating condition. LPA did not observe any hazards/toxins items accessible to children. The outdoor playground is fenced and has appropriate shading. The age-appropriate play structure and play equipment were observed to be in good condition and free of hazards. The areas around and under high climbing equipment have cushioned material.

A fire clearance was granted on 7/28/2023 by the Ventura County Fire Department for 60 ambulatory children. LPA advised site supervisor that for any increase of capacity and/or to add non-ambulatory children, a new application would need to be submitted to the Department and a new Fire Clearance would be requested to reflect the new capacity.
