CUP CHILDCARE (Cupid -- Central United Protestant Church Daycare)

Observation

2)c) In room 4, there was a electrical cord accessible to children on a plastic pumpkin in a cabinet at child level. There was also a stringer bag type backpack with long strings capable of forming a loop around a child's neck on one of the shelves in the play area that was accessible to children. The cords were removed during the inspection. In room 3, there were several plastic bucket stilts with long strings attached to them that were accessible to children on the top of a low shelf. The strings were long and capable of forming a loop around a child's neck and were removed during the inspection. In room 2X, there was a cord in an unsecured drawer near the sink that was accessible to children. The cord appeared to be a phone charging cord and was long enough to form a loop around a child's neck. It was removed during the inspection. In room 2, there were cords just inside the storage room that were accessible to children as the room was left unlocked. This room had a key and was subsequently locked during the inspection. 2)d) In room 4, there were a couple plastic bags that were about gallon-size that were accessible to children in the unsecured cabinets. They were removed during the inspection. In room 3, there were some items stored in plastic bags in the storage room that were accessible to children as the room was not locked and doesn't have a key to lock it. 3)c) In the infant room 1X, there were adult size glider chairs and stools that were in good condition, but which posed a sheering, crushing, or pinching hazard as the base of the chairs and stools have moving parts that a child could put their hands or body part in that would result in a sheering, crushing, or pinch type injury. These gliders were removed during the inspection. 3)g) In room 2, the vinyl wedge for child play is worn with cracked vinyl that is not in good condition as the foam inside is exposed. It was removed during the inspection. In the infant rooms, 1 and 1X, there are adult size chairs with peeling/cracked vinyl that are not in good condition. The peeling vinyl would result in the surface not being easily cleaned or sanitized as well. In the outdoor play areas, there was a plastic toddler toy with a broken part on it, broken plastic mowers with taped up handles, and a plastic chair with broken plastic on the back. These items were not in good condition for use and were removed during the inspection. 5)a) In the large restroom across from room 3 there is a GFCI outlet in the mirror near the handwashing sinks that is not tamper resistant. This area is accessible to children and the restroom is used for toileting/handwashing. In room 4, the electrical outlet near the microwave and refrigerator is not tamper-resistant and is accessible to children.
