The following was discussed with the director during the inspection:
It is recommended diapering, handwashing and ensuring an infant's safety on the changing table is reviewed with all infant staff, in addition to any other staff that you may use to fill-in when the regular caregiver is not present.
It is recommended limiting the amount of containers, such as, but not limited to, bouncers, in the infant classroom. Having too many containers in addition to cribs in an infant classroom, reduces space needed for adequate movement.
Comments:
