The last annual sanitation inspection was conducted on 5/20/2025.

The caregiver wrapped a plastic bag around the child?s hand, placed an ice pack inside the bag, and used a hair band to secure it in place around the child's wrist.

A child's relative arrived to pick up the child and was informed of the child's fingernail being removed after the finger was shut in the door. When the relative asked if the parents had been contacted, the caregiver said they had not yet spoken with the parents. The relative informed the parents.

An infant was moved directly to the group feeding table after having their diaper changed without having their hands washed. This was corrected at inspection when the caregiver was advised to remove the child and wash their hands.

The infant room had six children, five of which were 11 months or under, with one caregiver. This was corrected at inspection when a second caregiver was brought into the room.

Seven children whose ages ranged from 18 to 23 months were observed having screen time. This was corrected at inspection when the caregiver opened up the centers in the room.

An infant was observed sleeping in a bouncer and another was observed sleeping in a swing. This was corrected at inspection when the children were moved to their cribs.
