Comments:

This initial inspection was initiated by licensing staff and concluded on 08/15/2023, between the hours of 10 am to 12 pm. There were no children present on the date of inspection. The inspector reviewed compliance in the areas of administration; physical plant; staffing and supervision (discussion of points system and capacity); programming; medication (provider will only administer non-prescription topical skin products); special care and emergencies (with regards to drills); and nutrition (provider will serve snack, while lunch will be provided by each child's parent). A total of 1 staff record and 3 household records were reviewed. Information gathered during the inspection determined that there was (1) non-compliance with an applicable standard. This violation was documented on the Violation Notice issued to the home. All other areas that were left undetermined will be review at the next unannounced monitoring inspection in approximately 2 months. If you should have any questions, please call or send an email to charlie.perkins@doe.virginia.gov. Thank you. Charlie Perkins, Licensing Inspector (703) 309-3963
