Per Assistant Supervisor, the program commenced on 8/13/2025 with 4 children but was temporarily paused on 9/15/2025 due to low enrollment. The Assistant Supervisor stated, four kids were moved to Fairmont Park (Rec) Preschool on 9/16/2025. The Assistant supervisor further stated, the program will possibly resume in August 2026.

Storage for children's belongings is inside the classroom. Classrooms are equipped with multiple fully charged fire extinguishers and multiple first aid kits.

LPAs observed play structures to have cushion flooring. LPA observed all play equipment to be in good condition. LPAs observed licensing posters and required documents to be properly posted. Since the program was only operational for less than a month, there was no disaster drill conducted during that period. Since the program has no enrolled children, LPAs did not review any children\342\200\231s or staff files. While the program was in operation it used a paper sign in and sign out requiring parents wet signatures.
