Inspection history
DOHMH inspection records, newest first, with each violation's official severity and current OPEN/CORRECTED status. We show the government record verbatim and don't grade it.
How to read this record
- Critical — DOHMH's classification for violations that pose a risk to children's health or safety. The center must correct these, and DOHMH follows up.
- General — lower-risk Health Code violations. They still must be corrected.
- OPEN — not yet recorded as corrected in the latest data. CORRECTED — fixed, and the correction is on the record.
- DOHMH inspects licensed centers routinely, after complaints, and to verify corrections — so a violation on record is normal; what matters is severity, whether it is still open, and whether it repeats. Details in our methodology.
Training in child development Not provided every 24 months
In-depth review and real time drills in Safety Plan emergency procedures Not provided to required persons annually; training Not comprehensive.
What this means
Records Required persons were not given an in-depth review and real-time drills of the safety plan's emergency procedures each year, or the training was not comprehensive.
Worth asking: When were staff last drilled on emergency procedures?
DOHMH inspection summary: Passed inspection with no violations
DOHMH inspection summary: Reinspection Required; Fines pending
Constant and competent supervision provided by adequate staff for children and groups of children
What this means
Practice Children were not under constant and competent supervision by enough staff. The city's wording is a template, and the public record does not say what the inspector saw.
Worth asking: How do you cover supervision during naps, bathroom trips, meals and outdoor play?
At time of inspection it was determined that child care service failed to take any and all necessary action to eliminate potential hazards.
What this means
Building and equipment The center did not take every necessary action to eliminate a potential hazard. The public record shows only this template wording, not which hazard the inspector saw, so the center is the one to ask.
Worth asking: What hazard was cited, and what was done about it?
Incident injury log of accidents illness and epi auto injector use Not provided, Not maintained and Not available upon request
What this means
Records The log of accidents, illnesses and epinephrine auto-injector use was not provided, was not maintained, or was not available on request.
Worth asking: How do you record accidents and illnesses, and how are parents told?
