Cornerstone Kids Academy

“There was a classroom of children ages 20 months to 4 years old and they were watching a television show that was on the lesson plan. There was one child under the age of 2. Television is not permitted for children under the age of two. It was corrected at the time of the inspection by the caregiver turing the television off.”

“This standard was evaluated regarding a report received and found to be deficient. Evidence received through interviews supports the fact that a caregiver did not properly supervise a child resulting in the child being left on the playground alone for 35 minutes.”

“Based on the information obtained a caregiver did not use positive discipline when she was directing a child on laying his head down to sleep.”

“The television was on in the school age room and it was not related to the activity list on the activity plans. It was corrected at the time of the inspection by the caregiver turing the television off.”

“The operation did not have a current copy of a fire inspection. The last copy shows the fire inspection expired on 10/26/2023. The Director is going to correct this by getting the fire inspection.”

“The Director did not have current transportation training. The Director is going to correct this by getting the transportation training done.”

“Caregivers admitted and were seen on video footage doing end of day janitorial duties while supervising children.”

“There was a nap mat that was blocking an entrance/exit to the room. The Owner corrected this at the time of the inspection by moving the nap mat.”

“The playground check list had not been done in five days. The Director is going to correct this by making sure the playground checklist is done everyday.”

“There were three trash cans with no lids in the operation that had trash in them that consisted of diapers, drinking cups that had been used and hand washing paper towels. The Director corrected this by getting new trash cans with lids.”

“The child that was swaddled did not have the proper documentation-the Sleep Exception Form that allowed the child to be swaddled when sleeping.”

“It was found during the DFPS investigation inspection that two infants were left two sleep in restrictive devices.”

“Both caregivers in the infant room did not have the proper documentation stating they received safe sleep training.”

“During the DFPS investigation inspection, speaking with staff and reviewing video footage three children under the age of 12 months were seen sleeping in cribs with blankets.”

“There was not a fire extinguisher in the van. The Director corrected this at the time of the inspection by putting a fire extinguisher in the van.”

“In the 14-19 mo old room there were 8 children with one caregiver. The ratios are 1 teacher to 5 children for that age group. This was corrected during the inspection by the director having another teacher go into the room.”
