Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Licensing observed cleaning products, hair spray stored under the sink in the washroom. A rodent bait box was also observed in the children's outdoor play area.

Corrective Action(s): The Manager removed the items under the bathroom and she will look into placing a children's safety lock on the cupboard. At this time the outdoor play area is not being used by the children as they are using the grassy area in front of the building.

Observation: Licensing looked at 6 children's lunch boxes, at random, and noted that none of them had an ice pack.
