Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

On 11/16/2021 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Laticia Thompson conducted an unannounced visit to conduct and inspection for bodies of water (swimming pool). LPA observed 2 adults (licensee and assistant) and 10 children. LPA discovered that one adult did not have a criminal background clearance. Licensee stated she was unaware that a criminal background was required. Licensee stated assistant has been working at the facility for approximately three weeks. Licensee also stated a second assistant just left the facility and is currently unsure if she has had a criminal record clearance. LPA advised licensee that the uncleared adult must leave the premises and can not be allowed to care for children until a back ground clearance has been processed. LPA advised licensee she is required to reduce her capacity to a small family child care due to not having an assistant. LPA inspected the pool area. There are two mesh fencing separating the facility from the pool. The mesh fencing is sturdy and there are no visual damages or alteration. The gate swings away from the body of water, self closing, latches and has a lock which requires a key for unlocking. LPA advised licensee to remove the keys from the lock to prevent children from accessing. The windows facing the pool has metal bars attached to prevent access. Licensee is cited for the following deficiencies (see 809D): Criminal Record Clearance Out of ratio
