This unannounced Non-mandated Monitoring Inspection (NMI) was conducted as a result of an incident self-reported by the center to the Office of Child Care Health and Safety (Fairfax).

Based on interview, a child under 10 years of age was not always within actual sight and sound supervision of staff.
Evidence - 1. The Center Director stated (during an interview conducted on the date of inspection) that on 06/14/2023, at approximately 11:25 am, within the preschool pathways 1 room, Child #1 (2 years of age) was left unsupervised for approximately 5 - 10 minutes. 2. This incident was a result of Staff #1 performing an incorrect name-to-face count of the 16 children leaving their classroom to go outside. 3. Child #1 was found by another staff in the classroom sitting and unharmed.
Plan of Correction:
Staff #1 is no longer employed with the Child Day Center. All staff will be reminded of the center's supervision policy and the procedures in how to perform a name-to-face count correctly.
