“Room five had 10 children ages 20 months to 23 months with 3 teachers. The staff can not ensure the safety of each child when they are over ratio. The ratio was 3 to 10. This was corrected during the inspection and the ratio went back to 3 to 9 in which it allows the staff to ensure proper supervision and safety of all children in care.”

“Room 5 has 10 children and 3 staff. The children are ages 20 months to 23 months of ages. The ratio for that age group is 1:3. The program moved one child to the other two's classroom to ensure each child is with a primary caregiver and the ratio of 1:3 is met at all times.”

“LS did a walk through of the center. In room 5 (Flowers) there were 10 children and 3 staff members. This room has an approve capacity of 12 if all children are 2 years of age. The children in that room are 20 months old to 23 months. The ratio for that room must be 3 to 9.”

13A.16.08.01A(2)(b)

“Room 5 had 10 children ages 20 months to 23 months old with 3 staff members. The approved staff to child ratio is 1:3 for that age group. When there are 10 children ages 20 months to 23 months of age the staff would not be able to give adequate supervision to the children in care by being over capacity in room 5.”

“Room 5 is approved for 12 children if the age of the children is 2 years of age. The children in room 5 are 20 months to 23 months of age which then the approve capacity for room 5 is 9 children. Program must ensure the capacity of room 5 is met when the age group is younger than 2 years of age in that room.”
