Corrected: Aug 15, 2024

An 11-month-old non-walking infant was observed sleeping on a cot.

Corrected: Jan 26, 2024

Serious Corrected

Corrected: Jan 26, 2024

Serious Corrected

When observing the outdoor play area, due to the weather the playscape was wet and the children could have slipped and harmed themeselves. The hose used outside was not wrapped up and was accessible for children to trip and fall causing harm. The excess weed blocker used for the outdoor grounds was exposed and accessible to children. This was CORRECTED when the director wrapped the hose around the hose holder, cut the excess weed blocker, and the playground playscape was dried off.

Corrected: Nov 8, 2021

Corrected: Oct 12, 2021

The child only got a few steps from the front door before the staff was able to retrieve the child back into the daycare safely.
