Comments:

This inspection was conducted by staff using an alternative remote protocol, necessary due to a state of emergency health pandemic declared by the Governor of Virginia. An on-site inspection of the home was not conducted at this time however, a portion of the inspection included a virtual component which allowed the inspector to observe the daycare areas of the home. An announced renewal inspection was conducted on this date. The provider was contacted by phone to initiate the inspection. There were 6 children = 16 points with the Provider + Assistant #2. Ratios and supervision were in compliance. The inspector emailed the provider a list of items required to complete the inspection, and from that information submitted by the provider, the inspector reviewed 2 child records, and 2 caregiver records to ensure documentation was complete. Information gathered during the inspection determined one area of non-compliance with applicable standards or laws, which has been documented on the violation notice issued to the provider.
