Comments:

This annual subsidy inspection was conducted by the inspector using an alternate remote protocol necessary due to a state of emergency declared by the Governor of Virginia in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Preliminary data was obtained from the vendor on 4/06/2021. An annual subsidy inspection was initiated on 4/12/2021, at which time the vendor was contacted via video call to initiate the inspection, and concluded on 4/12/2021. The inspector emailed the vendor a list of items required to complete the inspection. The vendor reported there were 16 children in care and 4 teachers. The inspector reviewed 3 children?s records and 3 staff records submitted by the vendor to ensure compliance with the health and safety regulations. The Licensing Inspector has reviewed with the provider COVID-19 Essential Guidance for Child Care programs. Information gathered during the inspection determined areas of non-compliance with applicable regulations or law, and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the vendor.
