On May 25, 2023, Licensing Program Analysts (LPA’s) Susana Martinez and Daniel Venegas conducted an announced pre-licensing inspection for a change of ownership at a combination infant and preschool center. LPA’s met with owner/director Kelsey Sullivan and advised her the reason for the inspection. LPA’s and director toured the facility inside and outside. At the time of inspection there were 13 children in care, supervised by 5 adults.
The facility plans to operate Monday - Friday 7:30 AM - 5 PM and serve infants ages 0 - 24 months. No bodies of water were observed at the time of inspection.
