Facility-requested visit·April 30, 2021

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Justin Denton conducted an inspection to convert a room for use by the toddler option. LPA met with Director Jennifer Sawyer over FaceTime. The facility operates Monday through Friday 7:00 A.M. to 5:30 P.M. This facility operates an infant license and is adding a toddler option program to a single classroom. The above census count is for 13 infants present in the facility. The facility also has a separate day care license. This meeting was conducted over video-chat due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The facility has a copy of the following documents posted on a board outside the door of the classroom: Parent's Rights, Personal Rights, Earthquake Preparedness Checklist, Emergency Disaster Plan, and Car Seat Law information. INDOOR ACTIVITY SPACE: The room is equipped with child size furnishings. There are individual cubbies for storing children's personal belongings and properly stored napping equipment. LPA observed 5 cots for napping. Director Sawyer said the other 9 cots are in use in another classroom while this one is being inspected, making 14 total. LPA observed a complete first aid kit. Sawyer stated water will be accessible to infants. Parents are instructed to provide "sippy cups" with the children's names. LPA observed a diaper changing station and two child-size toilets. There is a separate staff restroom in the hallway. Individual measurements will be verified during a future on-site visit. Toddlers who become ill during the day will be isolated in the office and will use a separate "sick-room" restroom if necessary. The facility will provide morning and afternoon snack for the toddler component. Snack will be prepared in an on-site kitchen attached to the church gym. OUTDOOR ACTIVITY SPACE: The outdoor play space is fenced and is equipped with age-appropriate equipment. There is sufficient shade. LPA did not measure during today's visit due to the remote nature of the inspection. LPA observed there was plenty of outdoor play space to meet the requested capacity. LPA will return to measure the play space in order to document the square footage. No deficiencies were cited at this time. As of today, 4/30/2019, LPA Denton is approving the facility to add the toddler component for a maximum capacity of 12 toddlers. A copy of this report was provided to the facility via email. Director Sawyer agreed to send a signed copy of the report back to licensing.
