25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Mel Matos, conducted an announced case management inspection to the Facility today in response to a request received by the Department to drop Room P-9 and P-10 from the existing license and adding Rooms D101 (D1) and D102 (D2) to the preschool license. LPA met with Nora Lacayo, director, and explained the nature of today's inspection to her. The Facility is located on the campus of Ellis Elementary School. The licensed capacity remains unchanged (56 school age children). Hours of operation: 6:30 AM to 8 AM - Monday to Friday, 2 PM to 6 PM - Monday to Thursday, and 12:45 AM to 6 PM - Friday.
The program is operating at a functioning elementary school site (Ellis Elementary School) and thus is exempt from the indoor and outdoor square footage requirements, fencing requirements, toilet/sink ratios, and isolation area requirements. No measurements were taken of the indoor and outdoor spaces during today's inspection. A capacity letter signed by the Director of Facilities & Operations for the Sunnyvale School District is on file for Rooms D101 (D1) and D102 (D2). Per the capacity letter, Rooms D101 (D1) and D102 (D2) can accommodate 34 students each; total available capacity: 68. A fire clearance approval from Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety has not been received as of today's inspection.
LPA reminded Nora that all required posted materials, including the Facility License, Emergency Disaster Plan (LIC 610), Earthquake Preparedness Checklist (LIC 9148), Parents' Rights Poster (PUB 393), Personal Rights (LIC 613A), Child Car Seat Law (PUB 269), Menus, and Activity Schedule must be posted in Rooms D101 (D1) and D102 (D2).
There are sufficient tables, chairs, and hooks for the children in Rooms D101 (D1) & D102 (D2). There is sufficient equipment and supplies for the school age children in both rooms. LPA observed solid waste containers with tight-fitting lids in each room. Staff and children's bathrooms are clean, sanitary, and operable.
LPA notes that the kitchen/food prep area is located in Room D101 (D1). Drinking water will be provided via drinking fountains & water jugs cups/water bottles indoors and outdoors. School age children will use the playground area adjacent to Rooms D101 (D1) and D102 (D2). The playground area is currently under construction and a follow up inspection will be required to inspect the space.
LPA conducted an exit interview with Nora prior to the conclusion of today's inspection and advised her that a license for 56 school age children in Rooms D101 (D1) and D102 (D2) will be approved upon receipt of an approved fire clearance and outdoor space approval. Notice of site visit was issued and must remain posted for 30 days. |
