| Findings: There is a 2 year old who is enrolled that provider did not mention when specialist was at the home last week. She states she doesn't have the file ready to show to specialist.

| Findings: When specialist arrived the provider was up on the main level of the home and the children were in the family room which is 1/2 a level lower than the main level of the home. She was not visible to the specialist. The specialist called out to her in the doorway prior to entering the home as a child had opened the door to the specialist. Provider then appeared at the top of the stairs to the main level. She stated she had gone up there to be sure her husband (approved substitute) had heard her when she called to him to come to take the children out to the bus stop. Provider is reminded that she must remain on the same level of the home as the children because when she is on another level she is not near enough to render immediate assistance to the children. She returned to the family room level which corrected this. | |||

The provider has a video and sound monitor to maintain sight and sound. However the door to the bedroom was closed.

| Findings: The 17 month old was sleeping in a bedroom with the door pulled to and just open a crack. Provider is reminded that the door must be open if the child is sleeping in the bedroom and the provider must be within sight and sound so the child may have to rest in the daycare room.
