Comments:

Thank you for your time and assistance with the unannounced monitoring inspection conducted on March 10, 2020. The on-site inspection was from 9:15 a.m. to 3:24 p.m. On this date, there were 61 children in the care of ten staff among six classrooms. The program director was also available to assist, if needed. The total enrollment for the program was 82 children. The exceptions to compliance were noted on the violation notice and the risks ratings were noted on the supplemental page. Five staff members' records and eight children's records were reviewed. Seven classrooms were toured and observations were made in three of those rooms. The program director, four staff, and four children were interviewed. No medication is being administered at this time. All interactions between children and staff were age appropriate and positive. Some items that were reviewed and observed included: required posted information, injury reports, documentation of evacuation, shelter-in-place, and lockdown drills, emergency supplies, first aid kit, warm water temperature, art activities, circle time, reading station, hand washing and bathroom procedures, transitions, outside play, snack, and nap time. Please complete the ?plan of correction? and ?date to be corrected? for each violation cited on the violation notice and return it to me within 10 calendar days from today. You will need to specify how the deficient practice will be or has been corrected. Just writing the word ?corrected? is not acceptable. Your plan of correction must contain: 1) steps to correct the noncompliance with the standard(s), 2) measures to prevent the noncompliance from occurring again; and 3) person(s) responsible for implementing each step and/or monitoring any preventive measure(s). Please contact your licensing inspector, Chrystal King, if you have questions concerning this inspection, the licensing standards, and/or if I may be of assistance to you at 804-297-4469.
