Comments:
An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted today from 12:00am-2:30pm. There were 11 children (3-4yrs.) supervised by 3 direct care staff. The physical plant, 2 staff records, 5 children?s records, evacuation drills, injury reports, emergency supplies, and policies were inspected. Children were observed playing in home living, having story time, and engaging freely. There was a sufficient amount of books, toys, and materials, which were found to be developmentally appropriate for the children in care at the time of inspection. Areas of non-compliance are identified in the Violation Notice.

If you have any questions regarding this inspection, please contact the Licensing Inspector, Anansa Archer-Hicks at (703) 268-3295, or anansa.archer-hicks@dss.virginia.gov.
