      “Continued Non-Compliance: During the renewal inspection on 5/5/26, there were bottles for multiple children in the refrigerator in the Infant 1 room that were not labeled with the child's name. An acceptable plan of corrections was submitted that stated "A message was sent to families on Wednesday, May 7, 2026, reminding them to label infants' bottles prior to arrival at the center. If bottles arrive unlabeled, teachers have been instructed to ask parents to label the bottles using the supplied Sharpie marker or, if the parent is unable to do so, staff will label the bottles immediately upon receipt using the provided Sharpie to ensure compliance." The correction date was 5/7/26. On 5/26/26, the bottes of child #1, #2, and #3 were not labeled. Going forward, the infant teachers will check all bottles upon arrival each day to ensure they are properly labeled with the infant's name. Additionally, if bottles are not labeled, teachers have been instructed to immediately label the child's name on the bottle using the provided Sharpie marker. Staff will also be reminded of this regulation and procedure during the staff meeting scheduled for May 21, 2026, to ensure ongoing compliance.”
