Inspector Notes
An announced Initial Inspection was conducted today. There were a total of 4 children (11pts) with the Provider present during the inspection along with 1 household member. The program operates only on the lower level of the home. Walk thru of all 3 levels of the home was made which included all bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen space. There were 3 cribs onsite all of which were inspected and determined appropriate for use. The home was maintained and furnished with equipment such as high chairs, small table and toys and materials that were determined age appropriate for the children who were currently in care. The children were interacting with each other while playing with animal figurines on the floor. Diapering and hand washing procedures were observed during the inspection as the children transitioned to morning snack. 3 of the children were fastened safely in high chairs and 1 child sat at the nearby table. Snack today included sliced grapes, apples and fish crackers with water to drink. Positive interactions were observed between the provider and the children, particularly one new child recently enrolled who was adjusting to the home. A total of all 4 children's records, provider and household records that included background check results were reviewed. Some violations were found today and a corrective action plan for each was discussed. This inspection occurred between 9:30am and 11:50am. Thank you for your cooperation today.
