Inspector Notes

An unannounced mandated inspection was conducted on Thursday, February 1, 2024, to determine the provider's compliance with licensing standards. Two inspectors were on site from approximately 10:15 am until 12 pm. There were 12 children present with 1 caregiver and one assistant supervising for a value of 23 points. Children were observed having circle time practicing their Spanish vocabulary, learning dates, months, seasons of the year. Provider was reading a book to the children while they were sitting on the carpet. The inspectors interacted with the provider and children in care. The children were excited to be playing outside, interacting with other children, learning and developing their Spanish vocabulary. The inspectors reviewed compliance in the areas of administration, physical plant, personnel, household members, care of children, medication, special care and emergencies and nutrition. A total of five child records and three caregiver records were reviewed.

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.
