On October 23, 2024 at 12:15 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Laura Carone made an unannounced visit to conduct an Annual/Random Inspection. LPA met with Director, Mary Gossett and explained the purpose of the inspection. LPA and Director toured the interior and exterior of the center. There were 18 children with 3 staff at the time of the inspection. The center operates Monday to Friday from 7:00AM to 6:00 PM.

The center uses 3 classrooms for preschool. LPA observed the classrooms to be orderly with ample learning materials available. No bodies of water were observed on site. LPA observed Clorox cleaning wipes and Lyson deodorizing spray on the sink counter of room 5 making them accessible to children in care. No children were in the classroom. LPA did not observe any carbon monoxide detectors in the classrooms. Type B deficiencies were issued.

Pediatric First Aid/CPR certificates are current for staff. AB 1207 Mandated Reporter Training certificates are valid. Last completed emergency disaster drill was on 08/23/2024. All required forms including Notification of Parent's Rights are prominently posted for parent's or authorized representatives to view. A roster of children in care was observed current and complete. All children records were reviewed, and LPA observed Identification and Emergency Notification forms (LIC 700) and a copy of immunization records on file.
