An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted from 10:45 am - 12:15 pm with the provider and her assistant. There were three daycare and two household children, ranging from 22 months to four years of age, for a total of 11 points. Children were observed playing with a variety of age-appropriate toys. Two child records, three caregiver/household member records, the emergency drill log, daily attendance, and required posted information were all reviewed. The provider is not currently certified in Medication Administration Training (MAT) and cannot administer medication to children in care.
