25 | At 9:03AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Steven Tung conducted a pre-licensing inspection to inspect and evaluate a facility for a Family Child Care Home. A risk assessment was conducted upon entry - appropriate PPE was used. LPA met with Applicant Bridgette Holmes who guided licensing staff on a tour of the facility. Operation hours will be Sunday - Saturday, 6AM – 6:00PM. Applicant states that she will care for children 0 years – 12 years of age.
All areas identified on the facility sketch were inspected. This is a one-story single resident house. The home consists of 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, living room, kitchen, backyard (fenced), front yard (not fenced), and an off-limits separate unit.
Per Applicant, the children will use all areas identified on the facility sketch with the exception of the separate unit. Areas that will be used by children were inspected for safety, comfort, cleanliness, telephone service (cell phone/land line), ventilation and heating. Home has central air and heat. Detergents and cleaning compounds were observed by LPA to be accessible by children in the hallway closet next to the bathroom. Licensee immediately removed the detergents and cleaning compounds and made them inaccessible to children. Per Applicant, there are no firearms or poisons in the home.
Based on the Facility Sketch submitted, the separate unit is off-limits to children. The applicant understands that licensing staff may have access to off-limit areas during inspection visit if necessary.
The children will use the backyard for outdoor play, which was observed to be gated and fenced. The area that the children are using was observed with toys.
