Upon arrival, I was greeted by Zania Barbour, Program Coordinator. I arrived prior to the children’s arrival and was provided with notebooks with all the paperwork I needed to review. The current Public-School Off-Site Verification Form for Staff Records, Children's Record and Transportation was signed and on file with each current staff listed and all current children enrolled listed for after school. I reviewed the current Staff and Training Worksheet. Each group leader is current with their Health and Safety Training, First Aid and CPR. All staff at this site have their CBC qualification letter and BSAC. A new staff member hired in November, 2025 will complete BSAC training in March , 2026. The Recognizing and Responding to Child Maltreatment certificate on file for the new staff member was over a year old. A violation was cited. I monitored ABCMS and found in compliance.
