I was greeted by Ms. A. Nissan, LT and Ms. Andrea Gomez, TA when I arrived to the classroom. Today thirteen children were present. I observed the NCPK classroom and gathered attendance. Children were participating in free play, individual time with teachers, and group activities. The children moved freely around the classroom and outside. Ms. Gomez, the TA took half of the children outdoors for play time on the covered porch due to the rain and when she returned, she took the other half of the children outdoors for play time. All the interactions I observed were warm and caring. A Fire Inspection was conducted on April 10, 2024. The latest Sanitation Inspection was conducted January 16, 2025, with 4 demerits and a Superior score. I reviewed sampling of children’s files. I reviewed staff files and the staff and training worksheet. Your signature on these forms will serve as verification that the information provided is accurate and complete. The center’s compliance history is 98% as of February 12, 2025. I observed two violations of childcare rules during the visit today.
