The purpose of today's inspection was to review classroom. Licensee, Stanislaus County Office of Education, installed a walkway for toddler parents to walk through the infant room into the toddler room, but not enter the infants' classroom area.

By installing the temporary walkway in the infant classroom, licensee decreased space utilized in calculating infant capacity.
