LPA toured the inside and outside of the home. Inside the home there are two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, a family room, a dining room, a kitchen, a laundry room and a den.  Outside the home there is a detached garage which has been converted into a ADU, front yard and backyard, both are fenced in, and a basement. The following areas will be off limits: bedroom 1, bedroom 2, bathroom 1, kitchen, dining room, front yard, basement and detached garage. There are locked doors that make the kitchen and the dining room inaccessible to children in care. Applicant states that the doors will remain locked during operation hours. The following will be accessible to children in care: living room, family room, bathroom 2, den area, laundry room, and back yard. The living room and family room will be used for the main play area/ learning area.  LPA observed cots/pack and play for sleeping, age-appropriate toys, and books in primary care area. Children will be sleeping in the living room area and eating in the family room. Because the primary area is in the front of the house and the facility bathroom is in the back of the house, applicant stated the children will be  escorted to the bathroom by her or a staff member and walked back to primary area. Because the house is large in size, applicant stated the children will be escorted through the house and lead out of the back door to the backyard. LPA Chavies observed the ADU to be in front of the backyard, where the children will be playing. Applicant has filled out a LIC 855 stating that once a tenant is found, the children and the tenant will not interact during the hours that the facility is in operation. The applicant also stated the children will be supervised at all times while at the facility.
