By there not being another teacher in the classroom during breaks, it poses a potential health and safety risk to children in care. 8 Failure to correct will result in a $100 per day civil penalty until corrected. Repeat violations are $250 per violation and $100 per day until corrected.

Based on record review, interviews and admission, the licensee did not comply with the section cited above in which the drop off/pick policy does not allow parents to enter the facility, which poses an potential health, safety or personal rights risk to children in care.
