Comments:
An unannounced renewal inspection was conducted today between the hours of 9:30a through 11:30am with the provider on site. There were 12 children (39 points) with the provider and two assistants. A sample of 5 children's files and 4 staff/household member's files were reviewed. The children were engaged in the following: toy play, snack, playing in centers, dancing, listening to music, looking at books, bathroom breaks and hand washing. Infant's were observed playing in bouncy seats, tummy time, being held, bottle feeding, looking at books, diaper changes, hand washing and playing with toys on the floor. Interactions between the children and caregivers were positive. The physical space, emergency supplies, evacuation drills, attendance records, medications and the Emergency Preparedness Plan were reviewed. Areas of non-compliance are identified in the violation notice. Please contact me if you have any questions at Stacy.Doyle@dss.virginia.gov or 571-835-0386.
