Comments:
An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted on April 28, 2022, between the hours of approximately 10:50 a.m. and 2:50 p.m. Ninety-nine (99) children were enrolled and seventy-one (71) children, in eight classrooms, were in the care of thirteen staff members during the on site inspection. Five children's records and three staff records were reviewed and/or updated. Safety equipment (first aid kits, flashlights and radio), posted information (license, inspection documentation, menu, daily schedules, emergency evacuation diagrams/plan and emergency telephone numbers) and facility documents (injury reports, insurance verification, emergency drills - evacuation, shelter-in-place and lockdown) were observed/reviewed. The daily schedules accurately reflected the activities provided on this date. Staff/child interactions were observed to be positive and supportive of children's individual needs. Program observation was completed. Activities observed on this date included: indoor play (toys and table activities); outdoor play; stories; restroom and handwashing procedures; lunch; and infant care. Thank you for your time and assistance during the inspection process. 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.
Based on observation and discussion with staff, the center failed to ensure that children under 10 years of age shall always be within actual sight supervision of staff in one classroom.
Evidence:
1. Staff #3 was seated in the doorway observing three children in the hallway and six children in front of Classroom A. 2. There were two children out of Staff #3's sight and sound supervision in back of Classroom A due to classroom closet blocking her view. 3. Staff #3 stated was aware that she could not see the children in the back of Classroom A.
Plan of Correction:
Stop using the hallway as part of the classroom
