Findings: Fifteen child records were reviewed. Six children need documentation of either one lead blood test or the second lead blood test after 24 months of age.

PJ, four years old, also does not have any lead blood test documentation in his file; he needs proof of at least one lead blood test done after 24 months. All children born after 1/1/2015 must have a lead blood test done at 12 and 24 months. If only one test was completed and done prior to the child turning two years old, then at least one lead blood test done after 24 months is required.

2022-03-17 Full 13A.16.06.09C Corrected
Findings: DW owes 1 more hour of continued training that was due by 1/11/2022. She completed 2 of her required hours after this date. Please submit the completed training certificate to the licensing specialist as soon as possible. The director states the training has been done but DW is out sick today.
2022-03-17 Full 13A.16.07.06C Corrected
Findings: The new federal guideline does not allow a person to work on site until the MD or FBI criminal background check AND child abuse/neglect clearance have been completed. New staff person, LC, is on site working in the infant room with 2 other staff persons; however, her notarized release form has not been received. The center did submit the staff change form in a timely manner (employee start date is 3/15/2022) and put her notarized release of information in the mail as the original should be submitted. The release had not been received via mail by the time of the inspection. The center must ensure the release forms are sent in a timely manner so that the employee can be cleared by this office prior to working with children.
2021-06-25 Complaint 13A.16.05.12C Corrected
Findings: There were 4 infants outside with 2 staff and they were playing on infant outdoor equipment on the front lawn of the center. This is not approved outdoor play space as it is not completely fenced and is on a very busy road. The small playground in the back that they usually use is under new construction and isn't available. The infant staff state that when they have more than 4 children they just put the children in a stroller and stroll them for outside time. The 3 year old group was going to do water play in this front area but now will be doing it in the big playground space in the back. The infant outdoor equipment is very portable and can be moved to the larger playground in the back until the smaller playground is ready. Center is reminded that the front area of the center is very dangerous due to the very busy road and children should not be using that space.
2021-06-25 Complaint 13A.16.08.02B Corrected
Findings: The combined group had such a large percentage of pre-k children that there should have been a preschool teacher with the group but the center had a school-age teacher in charge of the group. SJ is in charge of the group and she is only school age qualified.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My children have been going to this center for years now. The staff are wonderful and my children enjoy their time there. Many people get this location mixed up with the previous owners. There are new managers and they are wonderful and ever so helpful when I needed directions on how to fill out the required enrollment forms. I recommend this center.
