Some were observed in a cabinet under the sink that was unlocked and others were observed on top of refrigerators.

2. There was a closet in the back of the nap room used by the children that contained a stock supply of cleaning and sanitizing sprays. There were approximately 35 bottles of refills for the cleaning and sanitizers that were stored in this unlocked closet on a shelving unit.
