Inspection history

Every state inspection visit on record for this home, newest first, from New York State's public file. We show the record as it stands and don't grade it.

How to read this record
  • New York State inspects home programs at least once a year unannounced, when the license or registration comes up for renewal, and after complaints. Every visit is listed with its date and result.
  • Violations found means inspectors cited one or more rule violations on that visit. Each one lists the rule, what it requires, and whether the record shows it corrected (fixed) or still uncorrected.
  • The state doesn't publish severity rankings the way the city does for daycare centers. Read the description itself, and ask the provider about anything that worries you.
  • To double-check anything or request the fuller file, open the official state record or get a pre-filled records-request letter, using the buttons under the inspection list. More in our methodology.

Violation · §416.11(a)(1)OPEN

Official rule text — what the state requires: No child may be accepted for care in a child care program unless the program has been furnished with a written statement signed by a health care provider verifying that the child is able to participate in child care and currently appears to be free from contagious or communicable diseases. A child's medical statement must have been completed within the 12 months preceding the date of enrollment.

What this means

Records No child may be accepted unless the program has a written statement, signed by a health care provider, that the child can take part in child care and appears free from contagious disease. The statement must have been completed within the 12 months before enrollment. The citation concerns those statements.

Worth asking: Can you show me that a current medical statement is on file for each enrolled child?

Violation · §416.14(m)Corrected

Official rule text — what the state requires: All child care programs must have at least one caregiver who holds a valid certification in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and first aid on the premises of the child care program during the program's operating hours.

What this means

Practice The rule requires at least one caregiver with a valid CPR and first aid certification to be on the premises during all of the program's operating hours. A citation under it means the program was not meeting that requirement when it was cited.

Worth asking: Who holds the CPR and first aid certification, and when does it expire?

Violation · §416.11(a)(7)Corrected

Official rule text — what the state requires: With the exception of children meeting the criteria of section 416.11(a)(6), children enrolled in child day care must remain current with their immunizations in accordance with the current schedule for required immunizations established in the New York Public Health Law.

What this means

Records Children enrolled in child day care must remain current with their immunizations under the schedule in the New York Public Health Law, apart from children covered by the exceptions in 416.11(a)(6). The citation concerns a child whose immunizations were not current.

Worth asking: How does the program track each child's immunization dates?
