The licensing inspector conducted an unannounced monitoring inspection on Thursday, June 9, 2022 from 11:20am to approximately 1:20pm. There were a total of 20 children in care in the direct care of five staff members. During the inspection, the children and staff were observed participating in a variety of activities. Staff were observed having positive interactions with the children. All areas of the facility used by the children were inspected. The center is equipped with toys and supplies and items were available to the children. The required postings were reviewed and found to be in compliance. During the inspection, five children?s records and five staff records were reviewed. Additional information was later submitted to the inspector and was reviewed virtually.

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.
