Technical Assistance:
Discussion was held on the topics of current enrollment, current staffing, and that this center and its "sister" center are under two different LLCs. Therefore, each center is separate and unto itself with separate background checks, references, and all other applicable documentation to include documentation required for all board officers.
Comments:
The following inspection took place between the hours of 8:30 am through 1:30 pm. Today, I met with the Staff of the Kiddie Academy located in Leesburg, Virginia. At the start of this unannounced monitoring inspection there were a total of 81 children observed with 17 classroom staff; good ratios in all 9 rooms. A total of 10 children?s files and 10 staff files were reviewed. The children were engaged in the following: infant feeding, tummy time, diapering, hand washing, song, art, coloring, flash card vocabulary, cutting skills, playdoh, large motor skilled activity outside on center playground, lunch, nap time, and other organized activities. If you should have any future questions, please call or send an e-mail to charles.perkins@dss.virginia.gov. Thank you.

Description:
Based on observation and interview, a trampoline was in use.
Evidence - 1. On the date of inspection (10/04/2019) at approximately 10:30 am, within the "Busy Bees" room, a child within that room was observed bouncing on a small size trampoline. 2. The Lead Teacher within the room stated (during an interview conducted on the date of inspection) that this piece of equipment is intended for those children with greater needs to use it in order to relieve built up energy.
Plan of Correction:
The center feels that this equipment is a benefit for the children in that room. The center will go forward an complete a request for an Allowable Variance (AV) for this particular standard. In the meantime, the trampoline shall be removed from the room and not used until such time that the AV is approved. The trampoline was removed on the date of inspection.
