Violation

While observing the classrooms there were microwaves within children's reach. The Licensor suggest microwaves are kept out of reach from the children to prevent injury to children. They can be removed completely or hung up and secured at least four feet from the ground, out of reach from children. The classrooms had teachers desk that were located in the licensed activity space for children. The Licensor suggest they block the desk area off from children, while ensuring it does not run into the required 35 square feet per child activity space, or the remove the teacher desks from the classrooms. Preschool classroom A had dividers between the gross motor room and classroom A that were falling over and not secured to the floors or walls. The Licensor and the Director talked about using shelving and baby safety gates to secure the wall between the gross motor room and Preschool A room. The Director showed the Licensor available shelves to divide the two rooms during the visit. They reported the current unsecured dividers would be removed and the shelves would be secured to make a wall. The preschool chairs had potential head entrapments. The cloth covering on the chairs to eliminate the head entrapments were not secured on the chairs, some chairs did not have the cloth coverings at all. The Licensor suggest looking into other ways to eliminate the head entrapments beside the cloth covering. Or removing the chairs completely and replacing them.

Violation

The program reported they take children to Dana Park, Sara Jane Pool and Rivers Pool. These spaces have not been inspected by the Licensor yet. The programs playground is all cement. While inspecting the playground during the visit the following concerns were discussed with the programs administration. A climbing structure did not have the required fall zones of 9 inches impact absorbing material under and 6 feet around the structure. The sides of the building and along the fencing of the playground on the playground had large sharp rocks, chunks of pavement, uneven pavement, and large holes which could be tripping hazards and possibly cause injury to children. The fencing along the sidewalk that separates the children from the public was not privacy protected, allowing for potential hazards to children being disposed of on the playground by the public, public people engaging with the programs children while they are on the playground and possibility of breaching confidentiality of children enrolled.
