“The provider had a specialized black cover that wrapped tightly around the pack-in-play. This cover also partly covered the top of the pack-in-play and the other half of the pack-in-play was open/exposed. The child was in the pack-in-play at the time of the inspection and he was standing with his head exposed from this opening. The child did not appear to be in any distress. The provider also removed this child from the pack-in-play during the beginning of the inspection so that he could play with the other children. The Licensing Specialist discussed the safety concerns of using this cover. The cover was dark in color and it did not allow for the provider to visibly see through the sides of the cover. The provider would only be able to see this child by looking from the top of the cover where the opening was located. It was also discussed that the there should be air freely moving through the pack-in-play without any type of cover constricting any type of air flow. The provider stated she only used the cover so that the other children would not distract this child during nap time. She immediately removed the cover and agreed to not use this item for child care purposes.”

The provider's home is located near a very large community pond. The provider agreed to submit a photograph of this correction immediately to the Licensing Specialist.”
