A prelicensing inspection was conducted today by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Elpidia Hernandez Torres. The applicant is requesting a license for a capacity of 14 children. Applicant was previously licensed from 2016-2019. Services will be available Monday - Friday, 6:00 AM - 6:00 PM. The licensee understands that 24hr consecutive care is prohibited. The residence is a three bedroom/two bathroom, dual level home. The applicant was reminded that all adults 18 and over living in the home, persons who provide care and supervision to children, and staff who have contact with children, including employees and volunteers, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a licensed Family Child Care Home. A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day up to $500.00 maximum per day/per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated

The floor and yard plans are verified. The children will have access to the entire first level of the home which include the living room, dining room, family room, main room, and kitchen. The "off limits" areas include the home's entire second level and all its bedrooms. These areas will be made inaccessible by door locks, latches, doorknob slipcovers, and/or child safety gates. The home appears to be clean and orderly at this time and will remain so during childcare hours. There is a working telephone in the home. The sharp knives, cleaning supplies, medicines, will be stored out of the reach of children. There were no firearms and ammunition in the home at the time of this inspection. Licensee states there are no poisons stored on the premises at this time. The regulation that poisons are to be locked using a key or combination lock was reviewed. First Aid supplies will be maintained at the facility. The children in care will have access to age appropriate toys and equipment. The home is equipped with a working smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector and a fire extinguisher rated at least 2A10BC. The home's fireplace is covered with a large art frame.
