25 | On March 21, 2025, FAS was down. This is an electronic copy of the annual inspection conducted on March 21, 2025.
On March 21, 2025, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Elizabeth Martinez and Licensing Program Manager (LPM) Cynthia Brannon conducted an unannounced Annual Inspection and was met by licensee, Nancy Hernandez. Also present was the licensee’s adult son, who was assisting with providing care and supervision to the children in care and, the adult daughter. Days and hours of operation are Monday through Friday 4:30 AM to 4:30 PM. During today’s inspection, LPA observed 8 children, 3 children under the age of 2 years, and 5 children between 2 and four years.
LPA toured the home inside and outside and a census was taken. LPA reviewed the current facility sketch and confirmed that the children have access to the daycare room, bathroom in the daycare room, and the dining room area. Licensee has stairs. Upon completion of the renovation, the stairs will be made inaccessible to children in care. Currently, the licensee is utilizing a baby gate in the daycare room to ensure inaccessibility to the rest of the home during a renovation.
There is a built-in swimming pool in the backyard which is fenced and made inaccessible. The pool gate is self-latching, self-closing, and opens away from the swimming pool. No windows or doors have direct access to the pool area. Currently, the licensee has a pool alarm, mesh fencing, a lifebuoy, and a pool rescue hook. Due to the shape of the pool, the pool alarm worked when hitting the pool water next to the alarm. However, the pool alarm is situated in the small cove area near the steps; when splashing water at the other end of the pool, the alarm did not activate. It was suggested, that due to the shape of the licensee’s pool, which consists of a mountain pool shape with several coves, another alarm would be beneficial to ensure the alarm would be activated.
