Comments:
An unannounced Code Compliance inspection was conducted on 8/8/22 from 2:15pm until 3:40pm. At the time of the inspection, there were 17 children in care with 3 staff. Children were observed resting quietly during nap time and eating snack. Records were reviewed for 6 staff. First aid and emergency supplies were also reviewed. Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law. Violations are listed on the violation notice issued to the center and were discussed with the director during the exit interview.
Based on record review and interview, the center did not ensure that they obtain the results of the fingerprint based background check prior to the first day of employment.
