Reviews
Sunshine Corners in Strasburg PA was home to my two granddaughters prior to them beginning kindergarten. The providers at this day care went above and beyond to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for the kids. I don't know what we would have done without this place to provide the love and care for out children. I HIGHLY recommend Sunshine Corners if you are seeking quality day care for your little ones!

Regulation: 3270.31(f) Description: Health and Safety Training Noncompliance Area: Staff person #8 has not completed the following required pre- service training within 90 days of their date of hire (see LIS code sheet): Pediatric First Aid and CPR dated 7.9.24. Staff person #22 has not completed the following required pre- service training within 90 days of their date of hire (see LIS code sheet): Health and Safety training dated 1.1.25. Staff person 13 did not have Health and Safety. "Get Started with Center Based -REVISED 2022 on file." Correction Required: Staff persons shall complete professional development within 90 days of hire as listed in subsections (f)1-10. |
|||
|
Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.) We did have some staff who did not have their pre-service training completed within the required 90 days of hire because we were in a hurry to get them started. Because of that we were allowing staff to complete the training on their own and lost track of where they were with it. We have adopted a policy of having staff complete the pre-service training prior to working in a classroom, except for Pediatric first aid, which we schedule as soon as possible with our new trainer. This procedure has been followed by the newest staff we have hired, and their pre-service training was completed before they worked in a classroom. Staff person #13 did not have hers completed and was in process when the training changed to the new two-part Health and Safety training. After your visit, we did not allow her to work in the classroom until she completed the 2-part training. I am sending you her certificates. |

| 2025-02-12 | Renewal | 3270.32(a) - Comply with CPSL | Compliant - Finalized |
|
Regulation: 3270.32(a) Description: Comply with CPSL Noncompliance Area: The file for Staff person #9 has not completed mandated reporter training within the last 60 months. This is evidenced by the previously documented mandated reporter training being dated 9/23/19. The file for staff person #10 contained a clearance that was not updated within the 60-month timeframe as required under CPSL. The file for staff person #10 contained a NSOR clearance date of 1/20/2025 with no updated NSOR clearance on file. The file for staff person #17 contained state police clearances beyond the 60-month timeframe as evidenced 3/28/19 and updated 4/4/24. The file for staff person # 32 contained a volunteer child abuse clearance (dated 9.26.2023). Correction Required: The operator shall comply with the CPSL and with Chapter 3490 (relating to protective services). Until such time as the required training has been completed, staff person #9 must be supervised, when interacting with children at a minimum by, an (AGS) who has completed all preservice trainings and has all qualifications to care for children unsupervised. If there are no staff person(s) available to supervise staff person #9, staff person #9 may not work in a child-care position at the facility. Staff persons # 10 and staff person #32 cannot work in a childcare position until proper clearance results are obtained. |
|||
|
Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.) Staff person #9 did not have her mandated reporter completed as she had been in and out while on leave with her own health issues and her son's health issues. She is back and has completed the training as of 2/25/25. I will send her certificate to you. Staff person #10 was an oversight on our part. She did not work in a classroom until her NSOR verification was returned on 2/20/25. I will send that certificate to you as well. Staff person #32 had a volunteer clearance as she was hired after completing a work. It was an oversight that she had a volunteer clearance and while she is not currently working because of college, we will have the correct clearance done before she works in the summer. The start date in a classroom for staff person #30 was indicated incorrectly on the staff data sheet and she did not work in a classroom until 8/14/24. The clearance for Staff person #17 was truly an oversight and we have remedied this happening with our staff Excel spreadsheet that shows all staff and their clearance dates, training dates and more. |
