LPAs met with Joann Barcellona, Licensee of the FCCH and explained the nature, scope and purpose of the inspection. LPAs, in the company of the Licensee, toured the interior and exterior of the FCCH.

At the time of the inspection, one child is present.

Toys, furniture and equipment observed in the home are age appropriate.
The backyard has a concrete slab and a grassy play area which is enclosed by a wooden fence. The fence’s entry/exit gates were secure. The backyard is partitioned and separated by chain linked gate. Toys and play equipment observed in backyard are age appropriate and in satisfactory condition. No bodies of water are observed on site.
A sampling of the children records were reviewed. The records are current and complete. A current roster of children was reviewed by the LPAs. The child noted in the roster is present and on site.
