This inspection was conducted by staff using an alternative remote protocol, necessary due to a state of emergency health pandemic declared by the Governor of Virginia. An on-site inspection of the facility was not conducted at this time however, a portion of the inspection included a virtual component which allowed the inspector to observe areas of the facility and children present.
An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted at 9:53am. The director was contacted by phone to initiate the inspection, and given a list of items required to complete the inspection. There were 63 children + 21 staff staff present during the inspection. Ratios and supervision were in compliance. Classrooms were well
supplied with toys and equipment for children, and appeared clean and organized today. Information gathered during the inspection determined there were no non-compliances with applicable standards or laws reviewed. Questions about this inspection may be directed to pamela.sneed@dss.virginia.gov
