An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted today September 17, 2019 to determine the centers compliance with licensing standards. The inspector arrived at 9:45 am and concluded the inspection at 12:00 pm. Upon the inspectors arrival children in the three year old classroom were finishing up center play and preparing for a guest. Today's guest did a lesson for both classrooms on the life cycle of butterflies. Children went outside to the garden where they viewed a chrysalis and a monarch caterpillar attached to the leaves of a milkweed plant with magnifying glasses. Children also listened to a story and had snack. Children conducted hand washing before sitting down for snack. Children in the four year old classroom listened to the story "Peppa's New Friend". Later children from both classrooms played with hula-hoops, scooters, pop-up tunnel and bouncy balls in the dance studio as the weather did not permit outdoor play. The two classroom areas, rest rooms, and hallway were inspected. The classrooms are equipped with age and stage appropriate materials. The facility had the required information posted to include: license, last inspection notice, emergency numbers, daily schedule, evacuation maps/ procedures and various parent information.
