Inspector Notes

The Licensing Inspector conducted an unannounced complaint inspection in response to a complaint that was received by the licensing office on 1/29/2024 relating to an injury, behavioral guidance, forbidden actions and transporting children off premises without permission. Interviews were conducted with the provider and children and documents were reviewed.

The information gathered during this investigation regarding behavioral guidance and forbidden actions does not support the allegations, so the complaint is determined to be not valid.

The information gathered during this investigation regarding transporting children off premises without permission and the injury determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law and two violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the program.

Please complete the ?plan of correction? and ?date to be corrected? for each violation cited on the violation notice and return it to the department within 5 business days from receipt. Please specify how the deficient practice will be or has been corrected. Please do not use staff names; list staff by positions only.

Any plans of correction not received within 5 business days will result in the plans not appearing on the Violation Notice and public website.

If you have any questions about this inspection, please contact the Licensing Inspector, Stacy Doyle at Stacy.doyle@doe.virginia.gov 571-835-0386.
