Introduction

An unscheduled routine inspection was conducted to assess compliance with the Community Care & Assisted Living Act (CCALA), the Child Care Licensing Regulation (CCLR) and the relevant Director of Licensing Standards of Practice (DLP). Evidence for this report was based on the licensing Officers observations, review of the facility records and information provided by the facility staff at the time of inspection. All areas of the facility were inspected for compliance.
As part of the Routine Inspection a Facility Risk Assessment is completed and a copy is provided. The Risk Assessment includes non-compliance identified during the routine inspection and a 3 year “historical” review of the facility’s compliance and operation.
Visit the CCFL website at https://www.fraserhealth.ca/childcare for additional resources and links to the legislation (CCALA & CCLR).

Comments

The following discussions were had:
· Active Supervision
· Lead in Water - more information can be found at https://www.fraserhealth.ca/health-info/health-topics/drinking-water/.
· Promoting Active Play in the program. The licensee stated that the children go outside daily for active play. Screen time is minimal.
· Temporary placements
Licensing observed the children looking at books, playing with duplo, eat a healthy snack and engaging socially. The caregiver was seen to guide the children in an active group activity time with music, movement, number and language activities, guide hand washing, practice pro social behaviors, nurture an upset child, speak in a gentle voice with the children and use positive words of encouragement (thanking them). The facility has many opportunities for all areas of development such as puzzles, dramatic play, number and letter activities and Montessori inspired materials (practical life).
Thank you for your assistance with this inspection.
