LPA was granted access to the home by Licensee, Marissa Salacup and explained the nature of today’s inspection. Present in the home were licensee and four children including three preschool age and one infant. Licensee, Rosie Badillo and five school age children arrived at 3pm. Licensees are operating within the ratio and capacity requirements of the license. Days and hours of operation are Monday to Friday, 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM. LPA observed all required posted materials near the front entrance to the home. There are four adults that reside in the home. Licensees have minor children residing in the home.
Licensees have a working telephone in the home. LPA observed sufficient materials, toys, and play equipment for the day care children. LPA observed a baby bouncer in the on limit family room. LPA reminded Licensees that baby walkers, bouncers, exersaucers, johnny jumpers and similar items were not allowed in family childcare homes. The home has central heating/cooling and ventilation for comfort of children. LPA toured the indoor and outdoor areas of the home during today's inspection. In use areas include living room, one bedroom/sick room, dining area and one bathroom. LPA observed a screened fireplace in the on-limit living area. Off limit area outside the home: left side section, fenced and locked left area where pool equipment is stored and gated backyard portion which includes a gated in-ground swimming pool and the right side section of the home. LPA observed that the swimming pool is surrounded by two fences one metal and one mesh. LPA observed that the five foot mesh fence which completely surrounds the perimeter of the pool does not obscure the pool from view. Pool gate swings away from the pool, self-closes and has a self-latching device located no more than 6 inches from the top of the gate. The hooks that attach the fence together are properly secured. The metal fence is locked and also keeps the swimming pool area off-limits to children. The on-limits play area outdoors was observed to have age appropriate toys. Shade is provided by a canopy. Applicant understands that children must be supervised at all times while outdoors. Backyard is fenced and both sides of the home are gated. LPA observed that the bathroom used by children was in operating condition. Toilets and faucet are clean and operable. The shower area is free of any hazards.
