Restrooms: There are two restrooms located in the school age classroom. Each restroom had one toilet. Hand washing sinks were located outside of the restrooms. Toilets and sinks are functioning properly and are age appropriate. LPA observed soap, toilet paper and paper towels readily available.

Kitchen: The center has a kitchen. Per Administrator the kitchen is not being utilized at this time. The kitchen was inaccessible to the children via a locked half door.

Food Service: One afternoon snack is provided to the school age children.

Outdoor
LPA inspected the outdoor play space for health, safety, cushioning material, good repair and age appropriateness. The Center has two outdoor play spaces. One play space is utilized for the preschool children. The second outdoor play space is utilized for 4-5's year olds and school age children. An approved waiver is on file. The outdoor space had a large climbing structure, dramatic play house, art supplies and sand box. The climbing structure was placed on recycled rubber and was anchored to the ground. At the time of this inspection, the recycled rubber under the climbing structures was approximately one inch deep. LPA advised the Center to monitor the depth of the recycled rubber to ensure the cushioning material is a depth that can absorb falls. Furthermore, LPA observed the exit area for the green slide and the grey climbing structure were within six feet of each other. LPA advised the facility representative that staff should be providing active supervision in this area, as the two activities are within close proximity to each other.
Water is accessible to the children via water bottles brought from home. Each of the outdoor play spaces are fully enclosed by a chain link fence.

Staff/Child Records
LPA reviewed five child files and two staff files. Based on LPA review, child files were complete and contained all required information. Based on LPA review, one of the two staff files was missing documentation of the measles and pertussis immunization, a technical violation was issued.
A staff member was on site who had a current CPR/First Aid.
