The inspection was conducted during napping hours, the ratio observed was: Four/Five's 11:1 Two/Three/Four's 14:1 (majority of children were age 3). One/Two's 8:2, however, prior to Licensing Specialist entering this room, the second teacher was observed coming back from lunch and was told by the Director to go into this classroom. When the LS reached the classroom there was 2 employees, but when asked, the teachers admitted that there was only one teacher present while the other teacher was at lunch. The LS discussed naptime exceptions with the employees and the Director. The Child Care Facility Handbook states on page 13 that: 2.4.2 Nap time Supervision During nap time, child care personnel must be within sight and hearing of all the children.
