This inspection was conducted by staff using an alternative remote protocol, necessary due to a state of emergency health pandemic declared by the Governor of Virginia. An on-site inspection of the facility was not conducted at this time however, a portion of the inspection included a virtual component which allowed the inspector to observe the the classroom areas and the outdoor playground.
An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted at 10:50am. The Director was contacted by phone to initiate the inspection, and given a list of items required to complete the inspection. There were 58 children present with 15 staff (12 direct-care staff). Ratios and supervision were in compliance. Classrooms were well supplied with toys and equipment for children, and appeared clean and organized today. There were no obvious hazards observed on the playground. Information gathered during the inspection determined there were no non-compliances with applicable standards or laws reviewed.
