The LPA was granted entry by the Licensee, Yan Yu Zhao. LPA explained the purpose of the visit. Present during LPA's visit included licensee and an assistant supervising 8 enrolled children (1 infant and 7 preschool age). The license is operating within capacity limits and ratio during LPA's visit.
Licensee lives in a 3-bedroom home with a spouse and 2 minor children. All adults living in the home have fingerprint clearance on file. The hours of the operation are Monday through Friday 8.00 am to 6.00 pm. The DAY CARE AREAS are Living Room, Dining Room, Bathroom, Bedroom 2 for napping, and back yard. The rest of the home is off-limits. Off-limit areas are properly barricaded with child safety gates and/or closed doors.
The LPA and the licensee both performed careful inspections of the daycare facility to look for any potential health and safety hazards. Toys and equipment that are suitable for children of the proper age range are provided at the daycare. The building has sufficient lighting and ventilation, and it is free of any defects or conditions that put children at risk. The facility is equipped with a first aid kit that is completely loaded with everything that is required for the treatment of injuries. The daycare facility is equipped with a smoke detector, a carbon monoxide detector, and a fire extinguisher that is always ready for use. Every garbage can and power outlet has been covered. Products for cleaning and washing, detergents, and any other materials that could put children in danger are stored out of the children’s reach. The LPA did not find any walkers, bouncers, or other comparable objects during today’s inspection. According to the licensee, there are reportedly no firearms or other weapons on the premises. The LPA found that the facility did not have any bodies of water.
