A renewal inspection was conducted on 04/18/2023. There were 7 children present, totaling 19 points, with 2 caregivers supervising. The inspector reviewed compliance in the areas of administration, physical plant, staffing and supervision, special care and emergencies and nutrition. The children had eaten lunch prior to the inspection. Diapers were being changed while children playing before going down for nap. A total of 5 child records and 2 caregiver records were reviewed.
The provider reported no children's injuries since the previous inspection. No medication is administered to the children.
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. Violations were reviewed with the provider during the exit interview.

All chemicals or hazardous substances will be kept in a curtained closet in the kitchen, away from food and inaccessible to the children in care.

1. Child 1, two years old, was observed running around the child care room and climbing on furniture during the entire inspection. She climbed up the outside of a high chair and onto the serving tray three times during the inspection. She was also observed running around and over other children while pushing them out of her way.
2. The provider acknowledged child 1's behavior and the challenge presented in ensuring her safety and the safety of the other children.
If a child's behavior presents a supervision challenge and a potential hazard to him/herself or the other children in care, a specific plan of action will be developed with the parent and/or the child will be terminated from care.
