Inspector Notes

Licensing Inspector conducted an announced initial Subsidy (SHSI) Inspection on September 25, 2023. There were 8 children ages 17 months to 3 years old present under the direct care of 2 staff. The Licensing Inspector reviewed 3 children?s records and 3 staff records, along with any requested program records submitted by the facility to determine if required documentation was complete.

An unannounced Religiously Exempt Code Inspection was conducted on the same date as the SHSI inspection; the two inspections combined cover all subsidy health and safety requirements. Only subsidy requirements that are not covered in Code requirements were reviewed during this inspection.

Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliances with applicable standards or law and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the program.

If you have any questions about this inspection, please contact Monique Anderson, Licensing Inspector at 540.309.2397 or monique.anderson@doe.virginia.gov.
