Effective January 1, 2025, the VDOE will begin determining compliance with ? 22.1-289.057 of the Code of Virginia, which is legislation passed by the General Assembly in 2020. The law requires all licensed child day programs, religious exempt child day centers that serve preschool age children, and certified preschools to test potable drinking water. The law requires that programs submit their plans and test results to the Virginia Department of Health Office of Drinking Water (VDH ODW) and the Superintendent. If the results of the testing indicate elevated lead levels, the program shall remediate, retest, and resubmit results to VDH ODW and the Superintendent. There is an additional alternative bottled water option that comes with additional requirements. The statutory requirement can be found online at https://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/title22.1/chapter14.1/section22.1-289.057/.

Comments:
An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted on Wednesday, June 12, 2024, to determine the provider's compliance with licensing standards. The inspector was on site from 3:00pm to approximately 5:00pm. During the inspection, there were a total of 10 children in care, totaling 26 points, in the direct care of three caregivers. Upon arrival, the children were observed in their designated areas of the family day home. The children were getting up from rest time and were observed preparing for an afternoon snack. All areas used for childcare were inspected. The family day home has age and stage appropriate materials and supplies. The caregivers were observed having positive interactions with the children in care. The first aid kit and non-emergency supplies were inspected and found complete. Per the provider, transportation is not provided and medication is not administered at this time. Four caregivers' records and five children's records were reviewed.
If you have any questions about this inspection, please contact Florence Martus, Licensing Inspector, at 804-389-0157 or florence.martus@doe.virginia.gov.
