Comments:

Thank you for your time and assistance with the unannounced monitoring inspection conducted by the inspector and Licensing Administrator on January 14, 2020. The on-site inspection was from 10:05 a.m. to 1:35 p.m. On this date, there were 22 children present in three classrooms and in the care of three staff members. The program administrator and one volunteer were also available to assist, if needed. The total enrollment for the program was 62 children. The exceptions to compliance were noted on the violation notice and the risks ratings were noted on the supplemental page. Four staff members' records and five children's records were reviewed. Three classrooms were toured and observations were made in two of those rooms. Four staff members and six 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, updated emergency preparedness plan, art activities, floor puzzles, water play, reading station, kite flying, hand washing and bathroom procedures, transitions, lunch, 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.
