• C10.2 - Are children supervised, and are employee to children ratios maintained?Critical

  Observation. - The licensee and children went outside while the inspection continued indoors. A few minutes later, a child could be heard repeatedly calling for help. It seemed that the child's voice was louder than the other children who were in the outdoor play space. The sound was followed and a one year old child was located in the play area adjacent to the outdoor entrance/exit. The child was pinned on their back to the floor with a plastic easel on top of their body. The licensee was alerted to this situation. During this span of a few minutes, the licensee and the other children were under cover, the furthest area from the outdoor doorway. The licensee was calling a parent to arrange early pick up time. It is reported that this is not a missing or wandering child as the child was knowingly left in the facility. When asked, the licensee states that the lack of supervision is not consistent with the supervision policy or practices which do not allow children to be out of sight or hearing of the adult in charge. As discussed, submit an Incident Report. - There are five children in care today who are under 48 months of age. The licensee understands that this not permitted by legislation.
