| Findings: Only 1 child (LK) had a signed and dated discipline policy addendum in his file.

| Findings: The provider does not have documentation of the parents receiving a Guide to Regulated Child Care or being advised how to access it online. Please notify the OCC once all the parents have verified via their signature and date that they have seen or have been told how to access the Guide to Regulated Child Care. | |||
| 2023-06-13 | Full | 13A.15.03.04C | Corrected |

| 2022-05-12 | Mandatory Review | 13A.15.03.04C | Corrected |
| Findings: Upon review of children's records, it was revealed that child LQ needs another MMR vaccination and another Varicella vaccination. Child HQ needs another MMR vaccination. It is possible that the Provider just needs to obtain an updated immunization record for each child. It was also revealed that children BQ, HQ and WG need a blood lead test with results. It is also possible that they have had the blood lead test and the Provider just needs to obtain the test results. Please advise the respective parents of the need for the vaccinations and/or the blood lead test results. Provide these to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance. | |||
| 2022-05-12 | Mandatory Review | 13A.15.09.01B(3) | Corrected |
| Findings: When the Licensing Specialist arrived, the television was on a children's show, but it was not interactive and did not seem to be educational. It remained on during the duration of the LS's inspection until the LS asked about the Provider's screen time policy. Provider then turned off the television. | |||
| 2022-05-12 | Mandatory Review | 13A.15.09.01B(6) | Corrected |
| Findings: When asked, the Provider denied having a screen time policy. Provider needs to write a screen time policy that reflects the regulations governing screen time policies. Please distribute the screen time policy to currently enrolled children's parents, add it to the handbook and provide it to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance. | |||
| 2021-06-02 | Full | 13A.15.03.03B | Corrected |

| Findings: During the in-person inspection, it was found that child, WF, and child, LK, do not have their respective physicians listed on their emergency forms.

| 2021-06-02 | Full | 13A.15.05.05A | Corrected |
| Findings: Provider does not have a barrier at the bottom of the stairs leading up to her deck. These stairs are within the outside play area for the children and are a hazard, especially for young children. Please secure a proper barrier at the bottom of the stairs and show proof of having done so to OCC. | |||
| 2021-06-02 | Full | 13A.15.05.06C(2) | Corrected |
| Findings: During the in-person inspection, children were initially found to be "napping". All children, except the two year old child, were laying on the carpeted floor. None of them had a bed, cot, mat or sleeping bag. The two year old child was standing in a pack'n'play. A three year old child was awake and sitting in a car seat, but not strapped in it. Provider said that she is emotionally "attached" to it and would move her if she fell asleep in it. Provider reported that she did not have any approved sleep sources except the two pack'n'plays. Provider does not currently have any children of the age to use a pack'n'play as a nap source. Purchase and use appropriate sleep sources as soon as possible and show use of them to OCC. | |||
| 2021-06-02 | Full | 13A.15.06.02B(1) | Corrected |
| Findings: The Provider nor her substitute has completed the training, "Child Care and COVID", located on the MSDE website. The deadline was extended for everyone until March, but the neither have completed it. Please do so as soon as possible. The link is provided in the remarks section of this report. Submit the completed training certificates to OCC. | |||
| 2021-06-02 | Full | 13A.15.06.02B(3) | Corrected |
| Findings: During the period of 08/2019 - 07/2020, the Provider only completed 8 hours of training even with the training time frame extension until 12/31/2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. She then completed 16 hours of training from 01/2021 - 05/2021. She was not in compliance with training requirements, but has now made up the required 24 hours of training. | |||
| 2021-06-02 | Full | 13A.15.07.07A | Corrected |
| Findings: During the in-person inspection, Provider was not requiring the children 5 years old and older to wear a face covering which remains a requirement by MDH/MSDE due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Provider is also not using the COVID-19 checklist or recording the temperatures of the children. She reports that she asks questions regarding COVID symptoms and regarding contacts. She also reports checking their temperatures, but does not record the answers or the temperatures. Provider previously agreed to do so. Licensing Specialist emailed her the COVID symptom checklist after the completion of the inspection. In addition, during the inspection, a three year old child was observed to be sitting in a car seat. This is an unsafe practice as it is not an approved sleep source and she could fall out of it and become entangled in the straps; possibly causing a strangulation hazard. Please write a letter of correction to address the car seat issue. | |||
