LPA also informed applicant of the importance of checking for recalled infant devices on the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) website at: https://www.cpsc.gov/, and recommended they register all infant devices with the CPSC to be notified of any recalls on their purchased equipment.

Cleaning disinfectants are appropriately stored and inaccessible to children. A changing table is currently not present in the toddler classroom. A partition separating the toddler option from the infant space is also currently not present.

LPA measured the infant and toddler classrooms. The combined classroom space contains a total of 1281.206 square feet, which will accommodate the requested 24 children. Individual measurements are recorded on the Capacity Worksheet (LIC 9024). There is a separate private restroom for the staff which is located in a hallway adjacent to the classrooms. Children who become ill during the day will be isolated in the front lobby area and will use the staff restroom, if necessary. LPA observed a functional carbon monoxide detector in both classrooms. LPA observed an electronic sign-in/sign-out system. Applicant stated there are no poisons or firearms on the premises.

Age appropriate equipment and play structures were observed. There are no bodies of water on the premises. There are shaded areas supplied by tree canopy.

The prelicensing report for the preschool license currently using the space lists the area as measuring 1,614 square feet, which will accommodate 22 children at one time.
