About the Provider

Description:

Hello. I've been running daycare for about 3 years. I have a little man that is 18 months old. We love doing crafts. My Crafts are from Britt's Creative Crafts. We try to make field trips to parks frequently. I help hands-on with online learning. For little ones I introduce their numbers, colors, and animals. I try to stay busy with all the kids. If your child has a schedule , I also keep track of them to make sure it's the same schedule as when they are home.

Findings: Approved areas of the home were dirty, cluttered, and inaccessible. The bathroom had so much stuff in it, it was unusable. There is a 4 year old in care, however, the provider indicates the child wears pull ups and does not use the toilet., but sometimes a portable potty chair. There was snowboarding equipment in the kitchen, craft supplies in the dining area, and things strewn about the floors throughout. Children would not be able to safely walk through/navigate these areas. The provider indicated that the children have not been allowed in these areas and stay in the daycare room, which is separated from the main areas of the home by a half door. Provider is advised that these areas need to be clean and accessible, especially the bathroom so the potty chair can be located there.

Findings: The provider had a mini trampoline, three swings hanging from the ceiling, two sets of gymnastic rings hanging from the ceiling, and a climber with a slide in the play area. The provider was informed that trampolines are off limits in child care. The provider was also informed that the swings and rings would need to be removed due to not having adequate clearance and approved resilient surfacing. All of these items pose a fall risk to children. The climber with slide can be moved outside. The provider also had an electric space heater in the play area.
