On June 13 2023 at 10:45am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Julia Placencia arrived unannounced for a Required-1 Year inspection. LPA met with Director Asmita Bhargava. There were 102 children and an additional 15 staff members present during the inspection. The preschool program operates out of four classrooms (Little Bears, Koala Bears, Honey Bears and Grizzly Bears). The facility was toured for a health and safety inspection. Hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 7:00am to 6:00pm.

Disinfectants, cleaning solutions, poisons and other items that are dangerous to children were inaccessible during the visit. The toilets and sinks were safe, sanitary and in operable condition. Furniture and equipment are in good condition, and floors are free of tripping hazards. The kitchen/food preparation and storage areas appear to be clean and free of evidence of rodents, and food is protected against contamination. All storage containers for solid waste have tight-fitting covers that are in good repair. Drinking water is available both indoors and outdoors. Menus are posted and visible for parents to view. Medications are inaccessible to children. There are no pools or similar bodies of water at this facility. Outdoor climbing equipment is properly anchored to the ground with adequate and appropriate cushioning material to absorb falls. There is a shaded area provided for the children. Fire/Disaster Drills are conducted monthly, and a review of the log shows the last drill was conducted 6/8/23. Required licensing documents were posted. Fire extinguishers, carbon monoxide and smoke detectors meet State Fire Marshall standards.



The facility is operating within its licensed capacity. The facility is within ratio today with one teacher supervising no more than 12 children. LPA did not observe any child left without visual supervision or unattended during the inspection. LPA verified both opening and closing staff have current CPR/First aid training. The center is in compliance with the sign in and out procedure. At 12:00pm, teacher files and a sampling of children's files were reviewed and contain required licensing documents. Teachers present today meet the qualification requirements. Staff have required immunizations and mandated reporter training.
