An unannounced renewal inspection began on January 9, 2020 and ended on January 22, 2020. There were 10 children in care from ages 4 years old to 10 years old with two staff providing care and supervision. The inspector reviewed 5 children's records onsite and all new staff records at another location on January 22, 2020. The center did not have any medications on the premises. This center does not transport children. Children were observed during the following activities: arrival, hygiene practices, snack time, homework time.
