Why this rating

This daycare earned 4 out of 5 stars overall. Structural quality reflects a 20% violation rate. The structural rating also includes Iowa's licensing baseline — what every licensed daycare in the state must meet. Iowa caps infant ratios at 1:4, toddler ratios at 1:4, and preschool ratios at 1:12. Lead-teacher education isn't regulated. Teachers must complete 6 hours of annual training. No objective process measures (e.g., state quality rating or national accreditation) are available for this daycare. The overall rating reflects structural features only.

      “a” All medicines and poisonous, toxic, or otherwise unsafe materials shall be secured from access by a child. Hannah did have a few chemicals in reach of the kids n the bathroom that I had her move. Suggestions/Recommendations: Hannah needs to ensure that all chemicals and toxic materials are secured from access by the kids at all times. The home was a bit cluttered but not to the point of being considered unsafe or unsanitary. This worker did talk with Hannah about some of the clutter and items that should be picked up.Walnut Street, Des Moines, IA 50319-0114 Iowa Department of Health And Human Services Kim Reynolds Governor Adam Gregg Lt.
