Some of the paint was curled up, making it easy for children to pick off. LPA also observed multiple nails that were protruding and there was multiple cobwebs under a plastic play structure. Inside the home, there was Windex glass cleaner and multiple hair and hygiene products under the accessible bathroom sink. Licensee confirmed all of the observations.
