On 11/16/2022 I received a complaint indicating that Ms. Wicks- Johnson is not following her own illness polices and this is causing children to be sick, the children's play area is not clean, and that the basement has mold. The complainant did not leave contact information; therefore, additional information was not available. On 11/17/2022 I completed an unannounced onsite inspection to Little Keisha's Angels in Southfield along with Child Care Licensing Consultant Renee' Erie. There were 11 children and 2 adults present. The 2 adults present were Gayle Heath and LaKeshia Wicks-Johnson. Ms. Heath worked as supervised volunteer. She provided ratio coverage while child care staff member Trenere Walker was on lunch break. I interviewed Ms. Wicks-Johnson. She stated that she has a strict illness policy, and children are never allowed to attend child care when they are sick. She shared that she informs all parents when any child is ill, so parents are aware. Ms. Wicks-Johnson indicated that she communicates any changes in a child's health using the Mobile App, Child Pilot. She said that children are sent home if they are not feeling well. Ms. Wicks- Johnson stated that she does not close the child care when children are ill, rather she excludes ill children from attending care. If a child falls ill while in care, Ms. Wicks- Johnson keeps that child away from other children. I received and reviewed Ms. Wicks-Johnson's parent handbook. Page 11 of the handbook states the following: Wellness Policy You are the best judge of your child's health, and we trust you will not bring a sick child to the Keisha's Little Angels Child Care facility. However, if while in our care your child becomes ill, displays an unknown rash, or acts out-of-character your child's teacher will consult the director and you may be called to take your child home. When called, you (or an alternate emergency person) are expected to come within the hour. This is to protect the health of your child and his/her classmates. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. The following criteria will be considered in determining if your child must go home: Unknown rash will need to be seen by a physician and the child can return to the o Keisha's Little Angels Child Care facility by the written recommendation made by the doctor. A doctor note is required. Fever of 100.5° or higher. For a mild fever, muscle aches, toothache, or o headache Tylenol (supplied from home) may be administered. *See Medicine 3 below. The child must be fever-free for 24 hours without the aid of Tylenol, or other fever reducing medications. Diarrhea (more than two loose, watery stools), or vomiting. Consideration will be o taken if your child is allergic to certain food/drink products or on medication. The child may return when bowel movements are normal, and no other symptoms of illness are present. The child may return 24 hours after the last time he/she vomited, and no other symptoms of illness are present. Persistent cough or runny nose for an extended period of time (cough o suppressants and/or allergy medications are not recommended unless prescribed by a doctor). Child may return 24 hours cough free without the aid of cough suppressant, or allergy medication. Crying and irritable for a long time, or not eating or drinking normally. Anytime a o child is not themselves, cannot be soothed by a teacher, requires one-on-one care, complaining about discomfort, or not interacting with the class is reason to take a Wellness Day and spend time in the comfort of their own parents) arms.
