Comments:
A Subsidy Health and Safety Inspection was conducted on Monday, March 4, 2024. The inspector was on site from 9:55am to approximately 12:58pm. There were 16 children in the direct care of four staff. Upon the inspectors' arrival, the preschool children were observed during circle time, singing, reading stories, and interacting with staff. The younger children were observed during free-play, independent play, and teacher-led activities. Later, the children were observed washing hands, taking bathroom breaks, and eating lunch. The center is equipped with age-appropriate materials and equipment for the children's use. Staff were engaged with the children and offering guidance when needed. The areas where children receive care were inspected and found to be in compliance. The center had the following posted: license, daily schedule, emergency numbers, evacuation maps, and various parent information. The center's first aid kit and non-emergency supplies were inspected and found complete. During the inspection, five children's records and five staff records were reviewed.

A licensing inspection was also conducted on these dates. Both inspections combined cover subsidy health and safety regulations. Only subsidy requirements that are not covered in licensing standards were reviewed during this supplemental inspection. Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the program.
