##### Regulation 19 — Health, welfare and development of child

- Children were observed drinking large quantities of juice on the day of inspection. This practice posed a risk of dental decay to the children and was contrary to the healthy eating policy of the service which states that juice is discouraged in the service and nutrition standards for preschool learning and care
- The hot meal was served to the children attending the service on a full day care basis on the afternoon of the inspection. There was one microwave used to heat up the meal. All children were seated at the table at 14:25. The last child did not get their meal until 14:50. All the other children had finished their meal before this child got their dinner. It is acknowledged the child was not distressed and the staff were constantly engaged and chatting to the children who were seated at the table. However, the inspector observed the child social needs would be better met by having their meal at the same time as their friends

- The healthy eating policy has been amended to advise parents that the service will provide water or milk to the children to drink going forward. This is to assist in the provision of healthy options for the children. Since the inspection the service is now in receipt of a grant to support them in providing additional nutritious food to the children attending the service
- An electrician has been employed to install a second microwave in the service. This measure is to ensure all the children receive their main meal promptly

##### Regulation 23 — Safeguarding health, safety and welfare of child

- General Safety 1. The service did not demonstrate compliance with the Early Years Inspectorate Regulatory Notice requiring services to re-new Garda vetting every 3 years. There were Garda vetting disclosures on file for all staff members, however the vetting disclosures for two staff members were not dated within the previous 3 years in adherence to with the Early Years Inspectorate Regulatory Notice EYI-RN12.3 Renewal of Garda Vetting. Action submitted by the Registered Provider

- A vetting disclosure for one of the staff members is now available on file in the service. The vetting disclosures for the second staff member is in progress and will be placed on file and sent to the inspector when received. The manager has initiated a checking system to inform them when Garda vetting is required to be renewed. This is in adherence to with the Early Years Inspectorate Regulatory Notice EYI-RN12.3 Renewal of Garda Vetting

Found compliant: Regulation 9, 11, 25, 26, 28.
