Inspector Notes

An unannounced renewal study was conducted. Eleven children were present with two staff as well as an independent contractor hired by a family to support the child in care. Children were observed in fee play/centers, circle time, transition to hand washing and snack (bought from home). Reviewed a sample of children's files (information was both on-site and at the registration office), trainings, physical space, emergency preparation and attendance. 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. Feel free to contact me if you need any assistance.
