On December 19, 2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Paul Garcia, conducted an unannounced Random Annual Inspection for the preschool license. LPA met with Director, Olivia Higgins, and toured the facility indoors and outdoors. Days and hours of operation are Monday – Friday from 7:30 AM – 3:30 PM.

This facility is unable to provide evidence of completed water testing.



There is no swimming pool or other bodies of water on the premises. There are no firearms or ammunition allowed or stored on the premises. During the inspection LPA observed a black bucket left unattended in the classroom sink that contained approximately one gallon of water with cleaning solution and towels that was accessible to children in care by means of a step ladder directly in front of the sink. No poisons were observed during the inspection. Furniture and equipment are in good condition, free of sharp, loose or pointed parts. While inspecting the outdoor play yard, LPA observed a plastic play structure that had sharp plastic parts.

During the inspection LPA observed the children’s dipper changing area ceiling to have visible water stains on the sheet rock. LPA also observed absent ceiling tiles in the entire room. LPA also observed chipped paint on windows to the building connected to the play yard. LPA also observed a mini pergola in the children outdoor play yard with two (2) broken wood slats with exposed sharp nails accessible to children. LPA also observed the children’s restroom to have missing bolt caps exposing sharp rusty bolts at the bottom of the toilet along with bubbling paint near the wall.
