Springwood Montessori School

Based on interviews and documentation obtained during the investigation, it was determined that staff did not exercise good judgement by participating in a prank that created a false medical concern involving a child.

During the Monitoring Inspection, the operation could not provide documentation of a current Health/Sanitation Inspection conducted as required.

One staff member had an expired CPR and First Aid Certification as of 8/8/2024.

Based on the investigation and information obtained the operation is not in compliance. A child was left on the playground for approximately 5 minutes unsupervised.

During a walk-through, a bottle of disinfectant wipes under an unlocked cabinet was accessible to children. Note: The caregiver removed the disinfectant wipes and placed them inside a locked cabinet not accessible to children.

I did not observe documentation of Infant Safety Training for two caregivers who work with infants.

I observed that the center's operational policies did not include information on the centere's procedures for Active Play.

I observed one caregiver supervising 8 infant and toddler children. The specified age of the group was 16 months. The maximum number of older infants that a caregiver can supervise while working alone is 5. NOTE: This was corrected during the inspection when a second caregiver joined the group.
