Comments:
This inspection was conducted by licensing staff using an alternate remote protocol, including telephone contact, documentation review, and interview.

A monitoring inspection was initiated on 1/6/22 and concluded on 1/10/22. The director was contacted by telephone and a virtual inspection was conducted. There were 44 children present, ranging in age from nine-months to ten-years-old, with seven staff supervising. The inspector reviewed compliance in the areas of administration, physical plant, staffing and supervision, programming, medication, special care and emergencies, and nutrition. A total of three child records and three staff records were reviewed. Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law and a violation was documented on the violation notice issued to the program.
