Based on observation, mats used by children did not meet all requirements.
Evidence:
1. 7 out of 13 children observed resting in room 1 did not have a bottom sheet.
2. 9 out of 14 children observed resting in room 2 did not have a bottom sheet.
3. 11 out of 14 children observed resting in room 3 did not have a bottom sheet.
Plan of Correction: We didn't know that children sleeping on the mats needed to have a bottom sheet. They all have blankets. We will send out an email to the parents and request that they all start sending a sheet for naptime.
