| 2022-05-25 | Renewal | 3270.52 - Mixed Age Level | Compliant - Finalized |
|
Regulation: 3270.52 Description: Mixed Age Level Noncompliance Area: There were 4 young toddlers and 8 older toddlers with 2 staff members observed in the toddler classroom. Since there were young toddlers present in the mixed age group, the staff to child ratio that needed to be met was 1:5, which required 3 staff with the 12 children. Correction Required: When children are grouped in mixed age levels, the age of the youngest child in the group determines the staff:child ratio and maximum group size in accordance with the requirements in § 3270.51 (relating to similar age level). The required staff:child ratios must be maintained at all times. |

Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.) Two 3 year olds (birthday 6/30/22) have now transitioned to the pre-school classroom to ensure that staff: to child ratios are maintained. |

Regulation: 3270.62(a)/3270.114 Description: Large muscle space provided/Outdoor Activity Noncompliance Area: The outdoor playground is not being used by the toddlers, since it has mulch which is not appropriate for toddlers. There is no indoor gross motor play space and the Director said that the toddlers are not taken outdoors daily, weather permitting. Correction Required: A facility shall provide outdoor or indoor play space to be used for large muscle activity which includes running, jumping, climbing and riding. Weather permitting, children shall be taken out doors daily. |

Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.) Building Management was contacted and we plan on sectioning off a portion of the playground to install artificial grass and a fence to provide play space for toddlers. When complete, I will notify my certification rep so that she can come check it and measure the 2 playground spaces for capacity. In the meantime, the toddlers will be taken outdoors daily, weather permitting, with 2 staff, on walks around the property. |
