On September 25, 2024 10:45am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Julia Placencia arrived at the facility unannounced for an Annual/Random Inspection. LPA met with director Rachel Liles. There were nine infants and an additional 4 staff members present during the inspection. The facility was toured for a health and safety inspection.

Furniture and napping equipment observed during inspection were age appropriate and in good condition. The indoor and outdoor activity space for the infant program is physically separate from the preschool program next door. Each crib is occupied by only one infant at a time, and is free from all loose objects, including blankets and pillows. Disinfectants, cleaning solutions, poisons and other items that are dangerous to children were inaccessible during the inspection. The floors were free of tripping hazards. Kitchen/food preparation and storage areas were observed to be clean, and free of evidence of rodents, and food is protected against contamination. Children bring their own lunch and snack from home. LPA observed foods were labeled properly. Drinking water is available both indoors and outdoors. All storage containers for solid waste have tight-fitting covers that are in good repair. There are no pools or similar bodies of water at this facility. Outdoor activity space and playground equipment were observed to be safe, free of hazards and had appropriate cushioning material to absorb falls. There is a shaded area provided for the children. Required licensing documents were posted. Fire extinguishers, carbon monoxide and smoke detectors meet State Fire Marshall standards.
