A monitoring inspection was initiated on December 1, 2021 and concluded on December 3, 2021. The provider was contacted by telephone and a virtual inspection was conducted. There were 11 children present, ranging in ages from infant to 3 years, with 2 staff supervising for a total of 30 points. The inspector reviewed compliance in the areas of administration, physical plant, staffing and supervision, programming, medication, special care and emergencies and nutrition.
