Based on observation, the 3 year old class was not within the allotted staff to child ratio.

Evidence:

The staff member was facing the children in the 4's classroom and the door was open. The 3's classroom door was closed. The staff member stated that they were watching both classrooms due to the 3's teacher going on their lunch break at 12:00pm. When the licensing inspector entered the 3's classroom, there were 11 children with no staff members to supervise them as they napped. At approximately 12:40pm, the Director came into the 3's classroom to supervise the children until a staff member returned from their lunch break. The classroom was out of ratio for approximately 40 minutes.
