Kids Connect of Baytown

During the inspection the infant room has a fan on the shelf not mounted.

During the inspection an inflatable pool in the playground area had standing water inside. The fence for the playground located in the back behind the daycare has loose boards. Corrected at inspection: The water was removed from the inflatable pool.

A caregiver in the mixed age group on the playground could not tell me how many of each age was on the playground. This was corrected when the director explained that bright wheel can be used to inform licensing of the children's ages and caregiver provided ages.

Caregivers on the playground with the mixed age group did not provide the correct number of children they were supervising. This was corrected when the caregiver had the children line up and do a head count.

The caregiver in the infant classroom was not able to tell me the name or age of three children in the classroom.

Four staff files were reviewed and three of the files did not have a notarized affidavit available for review.

Eight children's records were reviewed and one file did not have emergency care authorization or facility information.

There was one caregiver in the infant classroom SAG 12-17 months old with 11 children. In the toddler classroom SAG 4 years old there were 21 children with one caregiver when the second caregiver had to step out the classroom.

Eight children's records were reviewed. ONe child's record did not include the emergency contacts address.

CCR staff tried to test the CO detectors on the first and second floor and they did not work.

The playground contains wooden climbing equipment that has pieces of wood that are deteriorating, nails protruding, pllastic covering that were cracked/broken and moving boards that were not secure. There was also trash and debris that CRR staff requested to be removed.

I observed an unmounted fire extinguisher on the second floor of the operation.

I observed dirty bottles in the sink that is desinated for hand washing in the infant classroom.

The playground at the front of the operation only has one exit.

There are three playground areas on the operations property observed with less than 6 inches of loose fill.
