Violations

5
Standard 22.1-289.011-F
The license and any other documents required shall be posted in a conspicuous place on the licensed premises. The findings from the most recent inspection, dated 12/19/2024, were not posted in a conspicuous place on the premises.
Plan of Correction: All required documentation is posted in an open space for easy access of viewership. I will be placing the most updated version of the inspection in the front.
Standard 22.1-289.057-A
The program is required to submit to VDH and implement a plan to test potable water for lead. The program did not have evidence of a testing plan submitted to VDH.
Plan of Correction: The provider will submit a testing plan to VDH, and has been contacting several testing services but has not yet found a company that will either come to their home to test the water or mail them a testing kit.
Standard 8VAC20-800-430-A
Children under two years of age and children over two years of age who are not developmentally ready to climb or descend stairs without supervision shall not have access to stairs. Three children under the age of two had access to the stairs because the gate to the stairs was left open.
Plan of Correction: Gates are usually closed and I will make sure they are secured and closed moving forward.
Standard 8VAC20-800-560-A
A caregiver shall provide direct care and supervision of each child at all times. The assistant (staff #2) was observed looking at a laptop screen and typing on the keyboard while children needed supervision.
Plan of Correction: A conversation was had with the assistant and will be mindful of that moving forward.
Standard 8VAC20-800-800-A
The family day home shall have a written emergency preparedness and response
plan that includes provisions for a responsible person who is 18 years of age or older and is able to arrive at the family day home within 10 minutes for emergency backup care until the children can be picked up by their parents. The emergency preparedness and response plan did not have someone other than the provider listed.
Plan of Correction: Corrected during the inspection.
