12/13/2022 250.06(2)(c) Access To Materials Potentially Harmful To Children During a monitoring visit, the Licensor found that one of the cabinet doors underneath the downstairs sink, didn't have a working safety latch. Thus, cleaning chemicals in the cabinet were accessible to children.

9/23/2021 250.07(6)(h)1. Disinfecting Surfaces During a complaint investigation, it was found that a baby had a diaper 'blow out' while sitting in his car seat. The provider cleaned the car seat with a rag and bleach, but not thoroughly. After the provider wiped the seat down, she placed the child back into the previously soiled, wet car seat for a period of time and later sent him home in the same car seat. Aside from this issue, the baby had close exposure to bleach which can cause irritation in the eyes, mouth, lungs and skin, especially in small children.
