The public agency applicant/licensee is requesting a license for infant age children with a capacity of 27. The facility will operate Monday-Friday, 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM. The facility has two classrooms, #126 and #129, one children’s restroom, and three staff restrooms. The indoor and outdoor activity spaces were toured, and the facility sketch was verified. The following areas will be off limits to children: basement. These areas have been made inaccessible by means of locked/sealed doors. There is a kitchen to store/prepare meals and snacks. There is a nap area for infants to sleep with cribs available as needed, and children will also nap on mats in the classroom. There is a changing table in the children’s restroom, and a changing table in one classroom within arm’s reach of a sink. The isolation area for sick children will be in the office. The outdoor play area is fully fenced. There are play structures for children to play on and adequate cushioning underneath. There is no pool, spa, pond, fountain, or any other body of water on the premises. There is safe and age-appropriate furniture, toys, and play equipment available for children. A capacity worksheet was completed during the visit. There is indoor space for 41 children and outdoor space for 48 children. There are two toilets and six sinks available for children, and a potty chair if needed. Based on the above, the maximum capacity of the facility could be 41 children, with fire marshal approval.
