Technical Assistance:
We discussed the requirements for children's records, staff records, and records of emergency drills. The risk assessments for violations were provided.
Also, we reviewed the requirements for posting the most recent licensing inspection reports, individual staff training records, and replenishment of the resilient surfacing at fall zones of equipment.
Comments:
Thank you for your assistance during today's unannounced monitoring inspection conducted from 9:44 AM to 2:10 PM. Today, there were six to seven preschool children with one teacher. At least five children, including school age, will attend during after school hours with two staff. I viewed program activities, staffing, supervision, interactions with children, lunch, fire inspection report, equipment, posted information, emergency supplies and drill records, injury records, five records for children, daily routines, lunch and snack, four records for staff, staff qualifications, staff training, indoor and outdoor areas. The children have been provided a variety of age appropriate learning experiences during teacher led activities and choices in the classroom. Music time included use of rhythm sticks. Positive methods of guidance and affirming children's behavior were observed. Active play outside has been regularly scheduled.
Let me know if you need any assistance. 540/430-9259
