Comments:

An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted from 12:40 - 1:40 pm with the provider. There were four daycare children and one household child in care, ranging from 11 months to seven years of age, for a total of 12 points. Children were observed reading books, washing hands preparing for lunch, eating lunch and preparing for naptime. Lunch served today: chicken with pasta, salad, blackberries and milk. Four child records were reviewed along with the daily attendance, emergency drill log, and menu. The provider does not have certification in Medication Administration Training (MAT) so cannot administer medications to children in care. If you have further questions about this inspection please contact Donna Liberman at 540-359-5244 or Donna.Liberman@doe.virginia.gov.
