Comments:
An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted on-site April 18, 2024 from 11:07am until 12:16pm. The director was available during the inspection. There were 20 children present, ranging in ages from 4 months to 4 years, with 6 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 5 child records and 5 staff records were reviewed.

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.

Please complete the ?plan of correction? and ?date to be corrected? for each violation cited on the violation notice and return it to me within 5 business days from today. Please specify how the deficient practice will be or has been corrected. Your plan of correction should contain: 1) steps to correct the noncompliance with the standard(s), 2) measures to prevent the noncompliance from occurring again; and 3) person(s) responsible for implementing each step and/or monitoring any preventative measures. Please do not use staff names; list staff by positions only.

Violations:
Standard #: 8VAC20-780-60-A
Description: Based on a review of children's records, the center failed to ensure that each child's record contained the required information.
Evidence: 1. The record of child #2 did not contain documentation of a phone number for a second emergency contact.
2. The record of child #3 did not contain documentation of a complete address for the required two emergency contacts.

Plan of Correction: Ask parent to fill out.

Standard #: 8VAC20-780-90--A
Description: Based on a review of children's records, the center failed to ensure a written agreement between the parent and the center was in each child's record by the first day of the child's attendance.
Evidence: The record of child #4, enrolled 10/23/2023, contained documentation of a parent agreement dated 11/26/2023.

Plan of Correction: Can not fix.

Standard #: 8VAC20-780-270-A
Description: Based on observation and interview, the center failed to ensure areas and equipment of the center, inside and outside, shall be maintained in a clean, safe, and operable condition.
Evidence: In the three's classroom there were several walls with holes and chipped/peeling paint. Staff #1 confirmed the holes and chipped/peeling paint were present and reported they weren't fixed because she didn't want to due to a plan in relocation of the center in the future.

Plan of Correction: Fill and paint

Standard #: 8VAC20-780-290-A-2
Description: Based on observation and interview, the center failed to ensure fans, when used, shall be out of the reach of children and cords shall be secured so as not to create a tripping hazard.
Evidence: In the three's classroom, there was a standing fan on top of a book case less than 4ft in height, in reach of children. The cord hung from the wall to the bookcase in such a way a child could run into it, creating a hazard. Staff #1 confirmed the fan was on the bookcase in reach of children.

Plan of Correction: Removed fans

Standard #: 8VAC20-780-500-B
Description: Based on observation, the center failed to ensure a nonabsorbent surface for diapering or changing shall be used.
Evidence: In the two's classroom there was a rip in the diaper changing pad that exposed the inner foam of the pad, which no longer makes the surface nonporous.

Plan of Correction: Removed pad, as children do not get changed there.
