Description: Based on the inspection and observations the center failed to have children in sight and sound supervision at some points during the inspection.
Evidence: During the beginning of the inspection the children were playing on the playground, some children were walking in to the room without any adults being in the room to supervise. During the time the children came back in from outside, one staff went in to the bathroom and stood by the sink observing the children washing hands. The second staff went past the partition ,to the other side of the room, to pick up lunch for the children. During that time 5 boys were seated at a table and 3 of the boys started pushing and hitting other children. None of the staff were nearby to provider behavior guidance. One of the children were telling other children they could not sit in chairs and pushing them off.

Plan of Correction: I will discuss the supervision issues with the staff and make sure that they know they need to stay outside the bathroom so they can observe the room at the same time.
