On 10/26/2022 at 9:00am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Samantha Clenista conducted an announced Pre-licensing follow-up inspection. Upon arrival, LPA met with Facility Representative, Alexandra Ellam. LPA took a tour of the facility per facility sketch. This facility houses a preschool, toddler and infant program. The initial pre-licensing inspection was conducted on 10/19/2022. Purpose of this visit is to follow-up on the corrections that were needed to be corrected prior to licensure. The following were the listed corrections that LPA noted during 10/19/22 inspection:
  • Label all bathrooms do designate which bathrooms are used for children versus adults
  • Obtain a first kid
  • Submit and obtain an approved playground waiver to allow the toddlers to share the infant playground
  • Purchase/install more play equipment for the infant/toddler and preschool playground
  • Post all required documents for the parents and employees
  • Ms. Ellam stated she will purchase/install refillable water stations as a form of accessible water to children inside and outside the classroom
  • Make the water fountain located on the premises appropriately inaccessible to children
LPA observed the above corrections to be completed during inspection, except the following items still remains pending: place tweezers in the first aid kit, approval of playground waiver from management, purchase/install more play equipment for the preschool playground and install water jugs into the refillable water stations. Ms. Ellam also provided LPA with a packet of paperwork corrections that LPA will review at her earliest convenience. Ms. Ellam made the water fountain located on the premises inaccessible by placing big rocks at the bottom of the fountain and draining some of the water refraining from more water accumulating. As an extra precaution, Ms. Ellam stated the water fountain will be checked weekly to ensure that the rocks remain appropriately in tack and that the water remains low enough where a child cannot drown. Once all remaining corrections are obtained, reviewed and after conducting a final file review, a preschool license for 37 children (with no more than 11 toddlers included) may be granted.
