An unannounced renewal inspection was conducted on 2/07/2023 from 9:30am to 1:00pm. At the time of entrance, 53 children were in care with 10 staff members present. Children were observed playing with balls, getting ready to go outside, playing outside, painting with droppers, circle time, listening to a teacher read a story and group discussions and activities. Interactions between the children and staff were positive. The site was clean, organized and contained an abundant supply of developmentally appropriate materials. A selection of staff and children records, medications, the physical space, evacuation drills and attendance records were reviewed. Areas of non-compliance are identified in the violation notice.
