Safety - Areas Free From Hazards
After being aware of a child who was able to open the playground gate with ease on more than one occasion, immediate action was not taken to better secure the gate. Video of an incident was observed where the child opened the gate and ran before being retrieved by the caregiver on 3/25/26. At the time of the investigation inspection on 4/2/26, it was observed that a correction to better secure the gate had not yet occurred, which showed continued risk.

Provide care consistent with child's habits, interests, strengths, special needs, including any special supervision needs
Care being provided was not consistent enough to address a routine occurrence of aggressive biting by a child in care. As a result, several children were being bitten on a routine basis, sometimes causing bite marks that lasted at or longer than 24 hours.
