On 12/07/2023, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Nancy Her and Monica Lopez conducted an announced prelicensing inspection and met with Director Prudy Tanner. LPA reviewed the reason of the inspection, and a tour of the center was conducted both inside and outside. This is a new facility and applicant is requesting 43 infant children ages 0-2. This facility does not provide a Toddler option program. Facility will be caring for 6 crib infants and 37 non-crib infants. This program will operate year-round. This facility will provide full-time care from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm Monday through Saturday. This program will operate in classrooms 102, 103, 104, and 105. Applicant is aware to contact the Fresno Community Care Licensing for a change in classrooms and/or change in capacity.

Assembly Bill (AB) 2370, Chapter 676, Statutes of 2018, requires all licensed Child Care Centers (CCCs) constructed before January 1, 2010, to test their water (used for drinking and food preparation) for lead contamination before January 1, 2023, and then every 5-years after the date of the first test. Applicant will be scheduling their water fixtures for lead testing.

Director stated that the center will provide infant formula, breakfast, lunch and afternoon snack. The meals are prepared onsite. Parents will provide diapers. Ill children will be isolated in an area adjacent to the receptionist desk and utilize the adult bathroom in the hallway.

The classrooms were observed to be clean and free of toxins. LPAs observed that the furniture and equipment appeared to be safe and in good condition. There are enough tables, chairs, cots, cribs and plenty of toys for children to play. Director stated that the facility will provide sheets for their child’s crib or cot for napping. LPAs observed that each changing table is within arm’s reach of a sink. LPAs also reminded Director not to store anything on top of high bookcases/storage cabinets that could potentially fall on children. There is a working carbon monoxide detector that is part of the facility’s smoke detector system and is installed throughout the building.
