There were fourteen preschool children in care with two staff. The children were observed playing in the centers, listening and moving to music. Two staff's records and five children's records were reviewed. Areas of non-compliance are identified on the violation notice. If you have any questions, please contact your licensing inspector at (276) 608-3758. Thank you for your cooperation.
