The facility currently has an outdoor waiver from the Department, allowing a maximum of 33 children in the playground at one time. However, the waiver needs to be updated to align with the total license capacity. The outdoor play area is well-maintained, clean, and free of debris. It is fully fenced and in good condition. Additionally, all play structures, including climbing and sliding equipment, have soft artificial turf underneath to prevent accidental falls. The Department representative reminded the Director to ensure that drinking water is readily available to the children.
During the inspection, LPA reviewed records of children and personnel. The records for each child were found to be complete, including their names, addresses, and authorized representative telephone numbers. Each child's file also contains information about their immunization record, medical assessment, and admission agreement. Staff members' records showed that all individuals requiring caregiver background checks had undergone criminal records and child abuse index clearances or exemptions. All teachers possess valid CPR and mandated reporter training certificates. LPA reviewed the educational qualifications of the staff members and confirmed that everyone had completed the required ECE units.
