What these findings mean

Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people in care. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly make someone sick, and they matter more here because young children, older adults and people who are unwell are more vulnerable to infection.

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, required signage, written procedures and logs. These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.

    Recorded 2 times on December 12, 2023. For example: 1 - Are written policies and procedures in place to guide employees in all matters regarding the care and supervision of children?

  • Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk

    Floors, walls and ceilings must be clean and in good repair, with working lighting, ventilation, plumbing, hot and cold water, and washrooms. These are rarely an immediate health risk on their own, but persistent problems can lead to pest or sanitation issues.

    Recorded once on January 3, 2018. For example: 1 - Is the facility safe, sanitary, free from hazards, in good repair, and appropriate for the age and development of children?

  • Other findingsLower risk

    Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 20, 2025. For example: 2 - Are persons qualified and appropriately replaced?

  3. Routine Inspection

    1 infraction

    • C10.2 - Are children supervised, and are employee to children ratios maintained?
      • Observation(s): - Upon arrival at the facility, Licensing observed 2 school age children outside alone and doing a puzzle on the play yard patio. Licensing asked the children if they were allowed to be outside alone and they both said yes. While the entry door to the facility and adjacent to the patio had been left open about 12 inches, Licensing observed the 2 children outside alone for 10 minutes. Upon entering the facility, Licensing observed the manager caring for 7 other school age children inside. Licensing explained the purpose of the visit to the manager and explained that children being left alone outside is a contravention to Section 39(1) of the Child Care Licensing Regulation which requires that children in care be supervised at all times. The manager resolved this contravention during the inspection by bringing the 2 children inside with the rest of the group. During the inspection, Licensing observed 9 children and the manager present in the Group Child Care (School Age) program. The Preschool program does not operate in the summer months.
