Common questions

Has Jubilee Daycare/Preschool had any serious violations?

Pennsylvania cited 10 violations since 2021 on the topics Daycare Record treats as core safety (supervision, staff ratios, discipline, background checks, child protection or safe sleep). The most recent, on Apr 8, 2025 (supervision): “Staff person # 2 was walking children alone from one room to another without been supervised by a staff person qualified at minimum as an assistant group supervisor.” Pennsylvania’s records don’t grade violations by severity; each citation is listed in full above.

STAR 3, effective Jun 17, 2026. Keystone STARS is Pennsylvania’s quality rating program for child care, from STAR 1 to STAR 4. It measures program quality, not inspection results, so read both.
