An unannounced renewal inspection was conducted on 9/11/23 from 11:00am to 12:50pm with a Board Officer and the Director. There were five children in care, ranging in age from three- to four-years-old, supervised by one staff and one volunteer. The children were observed shoveling mulch for a community service project for the church, then coming inside and washing hands. Three child records, one staff record, one volunteer record, and two Board Officer records were reviewed. There were no medications on-site, but the Director has current certification in Medication Administration Training (MAT). Required postings were observed. The attendance and emergency drill log were reviewed. The most recent Fire Inspection on file was dated 8/3/22 and the most recent Health Inspection on file was dated 3/23/22. Food is provided from home. Room #110, a new space, was measured for a future two-year-old classroom and can hold up to 11 children. The room contains equipment needed for diaper changing, hand washing, toys, and has a bathroom with additional sink. If you have questions regarding this inspection, please contact the Licensing Inspector, Laura Brindle, at laura.brindle@doe.virginia.gov or 540-905-2062.
