On 10/09/2024 at 9:30am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Romy Castanon conducted an unannounced Case Management inspection for a decrease in capacity and adding one room. Upon arrival, LPA met with Program Supervisor Michelle Miller. Early Learning Coordinator Darcy Spicer joined later during the visit. Applicant is requesting to be licensed for 120 preschool children ages 2.5-5 years old in classrooms 7, 8, 12, 14 (new room) and 15. Facility is also requesting a Toddler Component increase of 48 children ages 18-36 months in new Rooms 5 and 6. Hours of operation will be Monday-Friday 6:30am-5:30pm. Present during today’s inspection were 47 children with 12 staff. Appropriate ratios and supervision were observed. All indoor and outdoor activity space utilized for the children was inspected today. LPA informed Mrs. Miller and Ms. Spicer that staff are required to maintain direct visual supervision of the children at all times during indoor and outdoor activities.

LPA continued to tour the facility and measured new additional indoor activity space. Total indoor activity space in Room 14 measured 909.38 square feet, which is sufficient to accommodate the requested capacity. LPA observed all indoor activity space to be complete with safe, age-appropriate furniture and equipment, including tables, chairs, cubbies, napping cots/mats, bookshelves, and other activity supplies for the children. Drinking water is available in the classrooms via filtered water pitchers and filtered water machine. LPA observed all hazardous items to be inaccessible to children.
