Comments:

An unannounced Renewal inspection was conducted today. A total of 11 children (32pts)with 2 staff supervising. The Provider was not present for this inspection. The older children were seated at the table preparing for a morning project. The project consisted of drawing and coloring a worksheet. The children were observed taking turns sharing crayons with staff nearby to assist if needed. The younger children were in the adjoining program room where they free played with puppets and interacted with staff and demonstrated side by side play with each other. Observation of the crib room, bathroom and remaining areas of the home was made. Some topical ointments onsite. No medication needs at this time and no identified food allergies. Once the project was completed, the children took turns putting them in their assigned sliding drawer to take home. The children transitioned smoothly to floor activities while one staff was observed sanitizing the table to prepare for lunch. A total of 4 children's records and all staff records were reviewed. All background checks remain current from the June inspection along with First Aid/CPR certifications. This inspection occurred between 10am and 12pm. Thank you for your cooperation today.
