Correction (as recorded by DHS): On September 24, 2024, Child Care Licensing Worker completed an observational visit with staff supervising children at the center. At the time of the initial GCC visit on July 30, 2024, Stepping Stones Academy - Kaneohe intended to open both a preschool and an infant and toddler child care center. But, the Department of Planning and Permitting designated the entire site as a group child care center with the exception for the infant room because the infant room had an exit that opened directly to the outside. At the time of the initial observational visit, the Department of Planning and Permitting had not approved the proposed Toddler #1 and Toddler #2 classrooms for the infant and toddler child care center which would affect license capacity of the preschool and the infant and toddler child care center.
