Comments:
An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted from 9:00 am-1:15pm. At the time of entrance, 129 children were in care with 28 staff members present. Children were observed during handwriting activities, listening to the teacher read a book, coloring, pasting pictures in sequence, painting, bathroom breaks, washing hands, fitness class, playing in centers, eating lunch and outdoor play time. Infants were observed being held, fed, playing with toys and sleeping. The site was clean, organized and contained an abundant supply of developmentally appropriate materials. Interactions between the children and staff were positive. A selection of staff and children records, the physical space, emergency supplies, evacuation drills, attendance records and medications were reviewed. . Areas of non-compliance are identified in the violation notice. Please contact me if you have any questions at Stacy.Doyle@dss.virginia.gov or 571-835-0386.
