Comments:
An unannounced monitoring visit was conducted on-site. Eleven children were present with two staff which is within ratios for supervision. Observed free play (clay, reading, blocks, creative drama, coloring and manipulatives), transition to hand washing and snack/lunch from home. No medication was reported to be on-site. Reviewed trainings for staff, 3 children's records, physical space (with the exception of the playground due to the wet weather) and emergency preparation. Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the program. Feel free to contact me if you need any assistance.
