| Aug 20, 2024 | §746.603(a)(4) Staff qualifications & clearances | Medium risk | Corrected | Children's Records - Immunizations: At the time of the inspection 2 of the 10 children's records reviewed did not have up to date immunization records on file. |
| Aug 6, 2024 | §746.603(a) Safety hazards | Medium risk | Corrected | Children's Records Maintained: At the time of the visit the children's records were not maintained with updated information for all children reviewed. |
| Jun 17, 2024 | §746.3701 Supervision & ratios | Medium-high risk | Corrected | Safety - Areas Free From Hazards: Based on information obtained it was found that the building at the operation has not been maintained to be free from hazards. On the playground an area of the surfacing has been ripped open, with parts of the surfacing being raised and creating a tripping hazard. In the same area where the surfacing is ripped, there is a large dip in the ground that is hard to see unless you are on it. This creates a tripping hazard for the children. An area in the infant classroom has laminate tile that has raised and broken edges. |
| Jun 17, 2024 | §746.201(9) Supervision & ratios | Medium-high risk | Corrected | Complying with Laws and Rules: Based on information obtained the operation had requested repairs for areas of the building in playground more than 6 months ago and the repairs have not been made timely. |
| Sep 18, 2023 | §746.605(16) Health records & medication | Medium-high risk | Corrected | Required Admission Information-Completed Food Allergy Plan: At the time of the visit 1 child's file indicated a food allergy but there was no food allergy plan on file. |
| Sep 18, 2023 | §746.603(a)(4) Staff qualifications & clearances | Medium risk | Corrected | Children's Records - Immunizations: 1 of the 10 children's files reviewed did not have an immunization record for the child on file. |
| Jul 28, 2023 | §746.3501(1) Sanitation & hygiene | Medium-high risk | Corrected | Diaper Changing Steps- Prompt: Based on information obtained through DFPS investigation it was found that children were not being changed frequently enough that skin irritation or diaper rash was caused. |

The caregiver was spoken to regarding the comment. |
| Mar 13, 2023 | §746.305(a)(2) Supervision & ratios | Medium-high risk | Corrected | AP Report Child Injury Requiring Medical Treatment by a Health-Care Professional or Hospitalization: Based on information obtained during an investigation it was found that a child in care had been injured in July of 2022 and required medical treatment from a professional that the operation did not report to Childcare Regulation. |
| Feb 23, 2023 | §746.1201(1) Staff qualifications & clearances | High risk | Corrected | Responsibilities of Employees and Caregivers -Demonstrate Competency, Good Judgment, Self-control: A caregiver showed poor judgement when sharing information of an incident occurring at the center with someone outside the center, instead of with the director. This type of action prevents necessary intervention when incidents occur in the center. |
| Feb 23, 2023 | §746.1203(3)(D) Supervision & ratios | Medium-high risk | Corrected | Personal use of electronic devices, such as cell phones, MP3 players, tablets, and video games: It was found that a caregiver used their personal device during the nap period to send messages to persons outside the center while counted in ratio as the caregiver, which reduces the caregivers ability to supervise adequately. |
| Feb 23, 2023 | §746.2805(1) Facilities & equipment | High risk | Corrected | Prohibited Punishments - Corporal Punishment: A caregiver used corporal punishment on one child by striking the child on their bottom in an effort to correct a behavior. The same caregiver used a threat of corporal punishment with an object to scare a second child into behaving correctly in the classroom. |
| Sep 21, 2022 | §746.2419(6) Food & nutrition | Medium-high risk | Corrected | Requirements for Feeding Infants - Label Bottles/Cups: At the time of the visit 5 of the 6 children's cubbies in the infant classroom had used sippy cups or bottles with no label of the child's name they belonged to. This was corrected when the infant caregivers applied labels to each child's cup during the inspection. |
| Sep 21, 2022 | §746.5625(b) Supervision & ratios | High risk | Corrected | Electronic Child Safety Alarm - installed and maintained according to manufacturer's instructions: At the time of my visit the child safety alarm on one of the operation vans was not working properly. The alarm did not sound when the van was turned off. A work order was put in during the inspection. |
| Sep 21, 2022 | §746.5101(a) Supervision & ratios | High risk | Corrected | Annual Fire Inspection - Before Initial Permit Issued and Every 12 Months: At the time of the inspection a fire inspection had not been conducted in the previous 12 months of operation. |
| Sep 21, 2022 | §746.3819 Fire safety & emergency drills | Medium-high risk | Corrected | Food Allergy Emergency Plan Signed by Parents and Health Care Professional: At the time of the visit 2 of the 10 children's files reviewed had listed food allergies with no doctor's note indicating the treatment for the allergy. |
| Dec 7, 2021 | §746.1201(1) Staff qualifications & clearances | High risk | Corrected | Responsibilities of Employees and Caregivers -Demonstrate Competency, Good Judgment, Self-control: This rule was evaluated with regard to an investigation and has been found to be in violation.
