This facility provides Incidental Medical Services – IMS. LPA reviewed storage of medication and equipment/supplies, and reviewed children’s, personnel, and administrative records. For IMS information see Evaluator Manual - Regulation Interpretations and Procedures for Child Care Centers Sections 101173 and 101226 The following information regarding ADA was provided: US Department of Justice (USDOJ) toll-free ADA Information Line at (800) 514-0301 (voice)/ (800) 514-0383 (TTY) and link to publication: Commonly Asked Questions about Child Care Centers and the ADA, available at: http://www.ada.gov/childqanda.htm

**Children will be Signed in and out and through Brightwheel. The parent board is located in the lobby area as you enter the building and contained required documentation. LPA has verified Director has current CPR/First Aid training (exp 3/2025), current Mandated Reporter Training (exp 1/27/2025), required immunization's, and qualifications.

All chemicals in the kitchen were kept separate from the food. All food shall be safe and of the quality and in the quantity necessary to meet the needs of the children. All kitchen, food-preparation and storage areas shall be kept clean and free of litter and rubbish; and measures shall be taken to keep all such areas free of rodents and other vermin. Food must be stored in that was stored in air tight containers.

LPA observed that this facility has telephone service, 4 fully charged fire extinguishers (2A10BC,), and working smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Fire Clearance has been received for the requested capacity of 21 PS/Toddlers, however, with the 1 bathroom with 1 toilet and 1 sink, the capacity can only be approved for 15 children. In addition, LPA discussed decreasing the capacity for the SA component after the PS component is approved for licensure. The SA component was approved for a capacity of 25 because the PS area was not in use and SA children had access to the 1 bedroom. However, if the PS license is approved, it will take 1 bathroom away which will cause a decrease in the capacity for SA children. Licensee wants to use the "gym play room" for outdoor play space since there is no outdoor play space available.
