The complainant did not leave any contact information; therefore, I was unable to speak to anyone to obtain additional information regarding the allegations. On 01/31/2023, Ms. Wusso stated she cannot recall an incident when a child had a fever and returned to the room to join his peers for snack while waiting for his parents to pick him up. When children are sick, they either stay in the office or they are in their assigned room away from the other children until their parent arrives to pick them up. To maintain compliance with staff-to-child ratio, sick children sometimes must stay in their room until the parent picks them up. During those instances, sick children are separated from the other children as much as possible to reduce germs from spreading to staff and other children. On 01/31/2023, Child care staff member 1 stated she is unaware of an incident when a child had a fever and returned to the room to join his peers for snack while waiting for his parents to pick him up. When a child feels warm, staff checks the child's temperature and if the child has a fever the child's parents are called to pick him or her up. The child waits for his or her parent in the office or in the room. If the child waits in the room, he or she is kept away from the other children. Sick children usually sleep on a cot while they wait for his or her parent to arrive at the center.

The complainant did not leave any contact information; therefore, I was unable to speak to anyone to obtain additional information regarding the allegations. On 01/31/2023, Ms. Wusso stated the center has not had any rooms that have been out of child care staff member-to-child ratio. She pays close attention to ratio and staff will let her know if they need something or need a bathroom break so that she can cover in that room. On 01/31/2023, Child care staff member 1 and Child care staff member 2 both denied that their rooms have been out of child care staff member-to-child ratio. When staff call in, other staff or Ms. Wusso will cover the shift. Children are also moved to different rooms per their approved age ranges. While on-site on 01/31/2023, I observed the six rooms. The child care staff member- to-child ratios were as follows: Room age of children Number of staff Number of children Infant (birth - 12 months 1 4 old) Toddler (12 months - 30 1 2 months old) Two's (12 months -30 3 11 months old) Early Preschool (30 2 5 months old — 3 years old) Preschool (3 years old —4 2 15 years old) Pre-K (4 years old and 1 10 older) I reviewed the face-to-name sheets for all six rooms for 01/30/2023. The child care staff member-to-child ratios were maintained on that day. On 03/14/2023, Child care staff member 3, Child care staff member 4, and Child care staff member 5 stated that their rooms have not been out of ratio. If their room was out of ratio, they would immediately call the office and Ms. Wusso would have someone come into the room or she would move a child to another room if needed. 7 On 03/15/2023, during the second unannounced on-site inspection.

If their room was out of ratio which can happen in the early morning when children are arriving, they would immediately call the office and Ms. Wusso would have someone come into the room or she would move a child to another room if needed. On 03/16/2023, I interviewed Ms. Wusso via telephone. She clarified the reason a pre-k child was documented as being in the office with her on 01/30/2023 from 11:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. The child arrived at the center at 11:00 a.m. when lunch was being passed out to the rooms. She did not want Child care staff member 3 to be out of ratio because she had 12 children. The child walked with her to finish passing out lunch to the rooms. Once lunch was all passed out, Ms. Wusso stayed in the pre-k room with Child care staff member 3 from 11:30 a.m. to 11:50 a.m. Once a second child care staff member arrived in the pre-k room at 11:50 a.m., she returned to the office. The child was never in the office.

On 10/27/2022, I conducted an unannounced on-site inspection. I interviewed Amber Boren (program director), Annette Handrinos (lead infant caregiver), Elizabeth Kratz (infant child care staff member), and Jill Lambert (lead toddler caregiver). Interviews were privately conducted in the program director's office. 2 Ms. Boren stated that Ms. Handrinos is the lead caregiver in the infant classroom and has an excellent employment history, with no past complaints or concerns. Ms. Boren said that Ms. Handrinos and the other staff members run the infant classroom so well that the corporate office often uses it as a teaching classroom. The corporate office sends new infant staff members to this location to observe and learn how to properly run an infant classroom. Ms. Boren stated that she has never received a complaint or heard any concerns about any of the staff members yelling at children or refusing to pick up children when they are crying. Ms. Boren stated that the infant classroom is located right up front by the main desk, and she denied ever hearing any yelling coming from the infant classroom. Ms. Boren stated that all staff members are trained on the center's discipline policy and that she has never received complaints about staff members yanking children's arms. Ms. Handrinos denied yelling at the children or yanking their arms. Ms. Handrinos denied seeing any other staff member act inappropriately with any child in the infant classroom. Ms. Handrinos stated that she would immediately report any concerns to her program director and contact Child Protective Services if she saw a staff member abusing a child. Ms. Handrinos denied receiving a complaint from a parent about a staff member yelling at or yanking a child. Ms. Handrinos also denied hearing a staff member voicing concerns regarding this type of behavior. Ms. Handrinos stated that all staff members attend to children when they are crying or upset. Ms. Kratz denied observing staff members yelling at children or yanking them by their arms. Ms. Kratz stated that she would report any concerning staff behavior directly to Ms. Boren. Ms. Kratz denied receiving any complaints from parents or hearing staff members voice any concerns regarding coworkers. Ms. Kratz stated that staff members pick up children when they are upset and comfort them. Ms. Kratz stated that she enjoys working in the infant classroom and the classroom always runs smoothly. Ms. Lambert stated that she has never seen any issues arise while she is helping in the infant classroom. Ms. Lambert denied hearing a parent complain about the care being provided in the infant classroom. Ms. Lambert said she has never heard staff members yelling or screaming at the children. Ms. Lambert further denied seeing a staff member yank a child or act inappropriately with a child. Ms. Lambert stated that she would report any concerns to Ms. Boren. Ms. Lambert stated that all the staff members in the infant classroom are very caring, and they always pick up the children when they need comforting. While on-site I observed the infant classroom. The staff members were all engaged with the children that were awake. The staff members were acting appropriately, and the children seemed comfortable and bonded with them. Any child that was crying was picked up and comforted. The infants that were sleeping were being supervised and were placed in their cribs following all the safe sleep protocols. 3 While on-site I viewed the center's disciplinary policy which prohibits any form of corporal punishments and uses the Reggio Emilia approach in discipline techniques, such as redirection, teaching calm down methods, and helping the child communicate their needs. On 12/07/2022, I interviewed Willow Pitcher (infant and toddler child care staff member) via telephone.

R 400.8137 · .......... R 400.8137 Diapering; toileting. (6) Diapers and training pants must be checked frequently and chanaed when wet or soiled.

Ms. Boren stated that the staff members working in the infant classroom are very good at changing diapers on a set schedule and every time they are soiled. All diaper changes are documented, so that staff members are aware of when children need their next diaper change. Ms. Boren stated that some children are more sensitive and sometimes get diaper rash more easily. These children are typically changed every hour to prevent a rash from starting. Ms. Boren stated that anytime a parent informs them that their child has a diaper rash, they tell all the staff members so that the child is changed more regularly to prevent this from happening again. Ms. Handrinos stated that the infant classroom has an excellent diaper changing system. Children are changed when they are soiled and every two hours regardless of whether the diaper is wet or soiled. This is all documented in the Sprout Application, which the parents are provided access. This information is also documented on a white board on the wall so that all staff members can visually see 4 when children need diaper changes. Ms. Handrinos denied receiving complaints regarding diaper changes from parents or other staff members. Ms. Kratz stated that staff members change children's diapers one hour after they arrive, every two hours after that, and immediately when they are soiled. Ms. Kratz denied receiving complaints from parents or staff members regarding children sitting in soiled diapers. Ms. Lambert stated that she has never seen any children sitting in a dirty diaper for any length of time while working in the infant classroom. Ms. Lambert stated that staff members change the children's diapers on a regular basis. While on-site I observed the infant classroom and the diaper changing process. I viewed the Sprout Application and saw numerous children's profiles that showed that diapers were being changed at a minimum of every two hours. This application allows the staff member to document if the child urinated or had a bowel movement, if the child has a diaper rash, and if ointment was applied. The infant classroom had a white board by the changing station that showed the children's most recent diaper change, and when they are due for their next diaper change. I observed staff members changing diapers, and all the proper procedures were followed.

On 3/1/2021 I conducted an unannounced onsite inspection at Tutor Time Child Care Center in Troy, Michigan. I observed the countertops and I interviewed Program Director Amber Boren and Child Care Staff Member's Bailey Craig (Preschool), Christopher Merchant (Preschool), Sarah Zielinski (Prekindergarten) and Quina Bautista (Early Preschool). I observed the countertops in the preschool, prekindergarten, and early preschool classroom. The preschool classroom counter had a palm size black speckled circle under the soap dispenser. It was black in color and slightly raised. It had a mold-like appearance. The counter was excessively worn under the soap dispenser and in various other spots on the counter. This was as evident by pitted veneer and discoloration. I interviewed preschool staff members Ms. Craig and Mr. Merchant. Both stated that there is a black mold-like substance that grows on the bathroom counter tops and on the counter top of the handwashing sink. There is typically more than one spot on each counter. Ms. Craig said they had just cleaned the countertops, and that is why there is a smaller than usual amount present. Ms. Craig informed me that the mold- like substance is difficult to remove and requires hard scrubbing to remove it. Both Mr. Merchant and Ms. Craig are concerned that children come into contact with the black mold-like substance on a consistent basis and the exposure is unsafe. I interviewed Ms. Boren. She stated that she has observed mold growing on the counter tops in the preschool classroom. She said mold grows under the soap dispensers and is caused by excessive moisture and water/soap drips from the dispenser. When mold is observed, she asks child care staff members to clean the area using a three-step process: soap and water, water, and bleach water. As part of the general renewal process, an environmental health inspection report was conducted by Teresa Brooks from the Oakland County Health Division on 12/17/2019. The center received a C rating and obtained temporary approval. A follow up inspection was conducted on 7/22/2020. The center received an A rating, however, Ms. Brooks cited rule R 400.8380 in her report. She indicated that the center shall be maintained in a clean and safe condition and noted that the hand washing sink in the preschool room (room 3) had water damage and room 1 and room 4 had chipped countertops. Ms. Brooks stated that countertops should be replaced to be smooth and cleanable. Ms. Boren stated that a work order was placed with the center's maintenance department on 12/03/2019; however, the countertops were not replaced, rather they were cleaned. 3

The ratios were as follows: Classroom Child Care Staff Number of Children Member( s) Early Preschool Quina Bautista 4 (30 months to 3 years old), the required ratio is 1:8 Preschool Bailey Craig 15 (3- to 4-year-olds); the Christopher Merchant required ratio is 1:10 ........... Prekindergarten and Sara Zielinski 7 School-age (4-years old and up); the required ratio is 1:12 I interviewed Ms. Bautista, Ms. Bailey, Mr. Merchant, and Ms. Zielinski. Both Ms. Bautista and Ms. Zielinski indicated that they both work alone in their classrooms and they are always in ratio. Ms. Bautista stated if she needs coverage for a break, she calls the program director for help. Ms. Bailey and Mr. Merchant both stated that the preschool room has been out of ratio at nap time. Ms. Bailey stated that she has been sent to lunch without proper staff coverage. Both Ms. Bailey and Mr. Merchant stated that this does not occur very frequently and did not indicate specific dates or times in which this occurred. I interviewed Ms. Boren. She stated that the center has had lower enrollment due to COVID-19 and that maintaining ratio requirements is not an issue. She stated that 4 she will fill in as needed and cover breaks if needed. Staff call the office when they need a break, and she will find someone to provide coverage or provide the coverage herself. I received and reviewed attendance records for the preschool classroom. Attendance records were provided for the following dates: 02-18-2021; 1 staff to 10 children. 02-19-2021; 2 staff to 15 children. 02-22-2021; 2 staff to 13 children. 02-23-2021; 2 staff to 18 children. 02-24-2021; 2 staff to 15 children. 02-25-2021; 2 staff to 10 children. 02-26-2021; 2 staff to 12 children. On 03/17/2021 I completed a second on-site inspection. I observed child care staff member to children ratios in early preschool, preschool, and prekindergarten classrooms. Child care staff member to children ratios were as follows: Early Preschool (1 child care staff member; 5 children) Preschool (2 child care staff members; 19 children) Prekindergarten (1 child care staff member; 12 children) I received and reviewed attendance records from all three rooms. According to attendance records, ratios were maintained in preschool and prekindergarten throughout the morning. However, ratios were not met in early preschool. From 10:15 am to 12 pm, early preschool had 1 child care staff member and 5 children. Child A was transitioning from the two's classroom. Child A is 29 months old. I interviewed Ms. Boren. She stated that she thought children could transition to the early preschool classroom as long as they had permission from the children's parents. I reminded Ms. Boren that children can transition into the early preschool classroom prior to 30 months of age, but they must still follow the required ratio requirement for a 29 month old child, which is 1:4. On 03/29/2021, I completed a third onsite inspection. I observed child care staff member to children ratios in the prekindergarten classroom. The ratio was 1 child care staff member to 12 children. All children in the prekindergarten classroom were 4 years old and up. I observed the preschool and young preschool classroom. There were no children or child care staff members present in either room. I interviewed Ms. Boren. She informed me that both the preschool and young preschool classrooms were closed due to a COVID-19 case. Ms. Boren indicated she closed and sanitized both classrooms as recommended by the Oakland County Health Department and were scheduled to reopen the following week. 5

I observed toys, equipment, and materials in the young preschool, preschool, and prekindergarten classrooms. All items were clean and in good repair. I interviewed Ms. Boren. She stated that staff are responsible for cleaning toys throughout the day and have specific cleaning tasks they complete at the end of the day. Ms. Boren said staff clean mouthed toys throughout the day and vacuum, clean dishes, do laundry, take out trash, mop, and sanitize toys. She said that staff do mop at naptime if they do not have time at the end of the day. Ms. Boren stated that staff use Betco Product, pH7Q Ultra and only sanitize at the end of the day when children leave. Product directions for pH7Q Ultra indicate that the product must never be used when children are able to come into contact with the product with the chemical before it is dried. Product directions indicate that pH7Q Ultra may be used as a disinfectant for mopping floors, while children are present. Product information specifies that pH7Q Ultra must remain on the floor for at least 10 minutes and that the area shall be dried with paper towel or allow to air dry before permitting children to return to the mopped area. I interviewed Ms. Bautista, Ms. Bailey, Mr. Merchant, and Ms. Zielinski. All four staff members stated that they were concerned about using pH7Q Ultra around children. Staff indicated that they are being asked to mop while children are present rather than at the end of the day, after children leave. Mr. Merchant stated he sometimes mops the floor at large group time, so children are further away. Ms. Zielinski said children could potentially come into contact with the cleaning product and that may be dangerous. All four staff members stated that they are not able to clean at the end of the day because they are being sent home. Mr. Merchant said he cleans in the morning but is not able to sanitize toys because children are present. Ms. Bailey said she was concerned that toys and materials are not being sanitized at the end of the day. Ms. Boren stated that floors can be cleaned at the end of the day, after children go home. .......................... ..........................................................
