Thrive Early Learning Academy

In one classroom a child did not have access to a walkway without having to step over or on at least one other child. This was corrected at inspection when a caregiver repositioned the nap cot that another child was on to give the child access to a walkway.

In two classrooms, there was not enough space between all of the cots for each child to have access to a walkway.

A caregiver did not know the number of children in the classroom when asked by CCR and had to count them to provide an answer.

The operation did not have documentation on file showing that a natural gas inspection had been conducted for Child Care Regulation to review during the inspection.

There is not a diaper changing pad/surface in the Tiny Buds classroom where children will be cared for that will require diaper changes. Additionally, there is not a hand washing sink located in the classroom or in an area nearby where a caregiver could adequately supervise the other children they are caring for.

The operation did not have a current sanitation inspection on file for Child Care Regulation to review during the inspection.

The operation did not have a fire inspection on file for Child Care Regulation to review during the inspection.

The following were observed during the inspection in areas that will be used by children: exposed wiring in uncovered outlets, power tools, exposed plumbing where toilets and sinks will go, wooden boards that a child could pull down on themselves, an unmounted door, a piece of wood with a soap dispenser propped up outside on the playground and a ladder propped against the wall that a child could also pull down on themselves.
