This facility currently has a compliance history of 94%. I was greeted by the owner/operator, Teresa Pegram. A volunteer, Kaitlyn F., was present today. There were six children present ages one- nine years old. Children were observed reviewing site words, looking at books and playing with other small toys. They were also observed playing outside with a variety of toys and balls. I monitored indoor areas used by the children during this visit including the bathroom, the kitchen and napping room. The outdoor area was free of any visible hazards. Playground inspections and emergency drills for 2023 were not documented. A fire inspection was completed on 9/15/22. Lead water testing was completed on 5/3/23. I reviewed children’s files, there were two children’s files unavailable for review. I also reviewed the operator’s file and monitored current certificates for CPR, First Aid and ITS-SIDS training, and qualification letters for Mrs. Perryman and household member D. Perryman. I also monitored the file for the volunteer Kaitlyn F. She had a current qualification letter and other annual paperwork on file. You have completed Health and Safety trainings except the course on Maltreatment, it was not due this year so you are saving it for next year's on-going training.
