She reported that due to the center being short staffed, she was asked to go into Ms. Ranson's class to relieve her for a lunch break. Ms. Ransom had informed her that Child A was not asleep 4 and had just used the restroom. Shortly after Ms. Jackson arrived in the class, Child A asked to go to the bathroom. Because she knew that Child A had just went, she asked Child A to wait because she could not leave the other children in the class alone. Child A then returned stating, "I peed on myself'.
