“The provider did not have her gate in place at the door leading into the kitchen, which is off limits to the child care children. LS also observed the door to the laundry room open when going to check the bathroom. LS closed the laundry room door during inspection. Please add the gate back to the doorway leading to the kitchen and send a photo or receipt to the LS. Please also add a tension or pressure gate to the bottom of the deck steps and send a photo or receipt to LS.”

“The provider has an above ground pool on the premises. The provider stated the pool has not been opened in at least one season and it is not currently open now. While present at the provider's home today, LS observed the ladder was up, but the padlock on the ladder was not locked. LS also observed the gate that used to be across the ladder was not in place during the inspection today. Please add the gate back to the ladder and ensure the padlock is locked. If the provider decides to open the pool this season, please make sure the pool alarm is in the pool and in working order. Please send photos of the gate in place and the lock locked.”

“The provider keeps a written record of attendance in a 'calendar keeper'. Attendance was documented and accurate during inspection today. Provider appears to be marking attendance for the entire week. Please take attendance daily so it is an accurate reflection of actual attendance. Provider is not having parents verify their children's attendance. Provider stated she will implement a 'sign in, sign out' record and have parents sign that daily so their children's attendance is verified. Please send LS a copy of this sign in, sign out record.”
