Name of Operation: SELWYN PRESBYTERIAN CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER Facility ID: 6055469 Consultant: JENNIFER STANSFIELD Operation Type: Center Case Number: 0925-222L Visit Date: 9/30/2025 Number Present: 91 Completed Date: 9/30/2025 Age: From 0 To 5 Total Minutes: 210 Time In: 10:15 AM Time Out: 01:00 PM Time In: 02:00 PM Time Out: 02:45 PM List to Use: Center Type Of Visit: Complaint Visit Announced/Unannounced: Unannounced The purpose of today’s unannounced visit was to obtain information regarding alleged violations of child care requirements. Upon arrival, I was greeted by Ms. V. Meadows, Assistant Director, and I explained the purpose of the visit. She stated Ms. B. Sharpe, Director, was in a meeting and she informed her I was onsite. I met with Ms. Sharpe and Ms. Meadows in the office. Additional information received indicated there were concerns regarding inappropriate discipline, feeding schedules not being followed, role modeling appropriate eating behaviors, and the safe sleep policy was not followed. I observed staff interactions on the infant and two’s playground as well as in Space 9 where concerns of inappropriate discipline were reported. Nine (9) staff members were interviewed. Discipline: In Space 9 I observed three (3) teachers supervising seventeen (17) children. One (1) teacher was observed sitting at a table with children as they participated in a teacher directed fall art activity. One (1) teacher was observed sitting on the floor with a group of children in the block center and another teacher was observed assisting children with dress up activities. During individual interviews in the office, it was reported that drum sticks from the music center were used by staff during transitions to get children’s attention. It was reported that drumsticks were tapped on tables or cabinets and teachers instructed children to tap their heads, tummies or feet if they could hear the teacher’s voice. It was reported that drumsticks were never used on children to redirect. During interviews it was reported that no one observed staff throwing toys at children on the playground in the morning or afternoon. It was reported that staff have heard teachers say to children on the playground, “how can you do that and you’re still poop in your pants.” Feeding schedules/role modeling appropriate eating behaviors: All infant feeding schedules were observed posted and signed in the three (3) infant classrooms. I observed two (2) teachers providing bottles to infants. I observed food provided by the center being delivered to one (1) classroom for an infant whose feeding plan indicated the child was eating center food. During interviews it was reported that a staff member observed a teacher feeding an infant a potato chip from a staff’s lunch/snack to try and it was reported to administration. It was reported that administration addressed following the posted feeding schedules and modeling appropriate eating behaviors in front of children with all staff. Safe sleep practices/policy: I observed safe sleep checks documented and maintained for all children under 12 months of age. I observed sleep times documented at different times for infants who still required morning and afternoon naps. It was reported that if a child fell asleep or appeared sleepy staff would place them in their crib to sleep and document safe sleep checks every fifteen (15) minutes. I observed the temperature in each infant classroom below 75 degrees. Based on discussions with two (2) administrators and seven (7) additional staff members, observations, and review of safe sleep charts there was not enough evidence to confirm allegations of not following the safe sleep policy and safe sleep practices. Based on interviews, the allegation of inappropriate discipline, not following the feeding plans, and role modeling appropriate eating habits were confirmed. Three (3) violations were cited today. Violation Number Comment Rule 540 An individual written feeding plan was not provided by child's parent or health care provider or was not followed and posted. (omit posting for centers located in a residence). It was reported that a staff member in the infant classroom for children under 15 months of age gave a child a potato chip to taste. The feeding plan did not list potato chips. 10A NCAC 09 .0902(a) 1792 Staff did not model appropriate eating behaviors by consuming food or beverages that meet the nutritional requirements specified in the Meal Patterns for Children in Child Care Programs in the presence of children in care. It was reported that a staff member was eating potato chips brought from home in front of children in the classroom. .0901(i) 1876 A child was yelled at, shamed, humiliated, frightened, threatened or bullied. It was reported that a teacher was heard telling a child on the two year old playground that did not understand how they could do things on the playground and "still poop in their pants." .1803(a)(9) Corrective Action: Violations must be corrected immediately. The child care provider is expected to maintain all applicable child care requirements at all times. The provider will send me a compliance letter that includes the violation item number and an explanation of how each of today’s violations were corrected. Corrections must be received by me on or before Tuesday, October 14, 2025 to the email address listed below. Failure to correct the violations and send the written statement by the due date listed above may result in an unannounced follow-up visit being conducted or an administrative action may be recommended. Based on Child Care Rule 10A NCAC 09 Section .2200, the Division of Child Development may take administrative action against the license and/or impose civil penalties based on the failure of the operator to correct any documented violations within the established time period. Technical Assistance/General Comments: - Children should never be yelled at, shamed, humiliated, frightened, threatened, or bullied regarding toileting accidents. Staff should encourage children to use the restroom prior to going outside to help prevent toileting accidents while on the playground. - Feeding plans completed by parents should always be followed. No food should be introduced to infants that has not been approved by parents. Staff should not allow infants or children to try food brought or bought by staff members. All food consumed by staff in front of children should meet nutritional requirements and comply with the Meal Patterns for Children in Child Care Programs from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) which are based on the recommended nutrient intake judged by the National Research Council to be adequate for maintaining good nutrition. Thank you for your time today. Please contact me with questions or concerns at jennifer.stansfield@dhhs.nc.gov or 704-956-1648. If the operator fails to correct any documented violations within the established time period, the Division of Child Development and Early Education may deny, suspend, terminate, or revoke any permit to operate (10A NCAC 09 .2000).

A window beside the changing table in Space 4 was observed with peeling paint around the sills. The posted menu reflected what was served. Milk was provided by the facility. Specialty milk was provided by parents for several children. I recommended pouring specialty milk in cups rather than sending the entire carton to the classroom to maintain the required temperature. The facility’s milk was poured into a serving pitcher and discarded in the classroom after lunch. Medication permissions and medical action plans were monitored and met compliance. Playgrounds were monitored today. The two’s playground was currently not being used due to tree and gate damage due to the Tropical Storm Debbie.

The facility was currently operating with a Five Star Rated License issued on April 19, 2018 and had an eighteen (18) month compliance history score of 90% prior to today’s visit. The March 2024 Center Item Number Listing and March 2024 Annual Compliance Checklist were used to monitor today. A copy of the checklist was emailed after the visit. The license and NC Summary of the Law were prominently posted. Upon arrival I was greeted by Beth Sharpe, Director, and I explained the purpose of my visit. I requested a sampling of children’s records. She stated one (1) new employee was hired since the last annual compliance visit conducted November 21, 2023. Ms. Sharpe accompanied me on the walk through. Three (3) infant classrooms were monitored. Each completed and maintained safe sleep checks per the posted policy. Bottles were observed labeled and dated. Diaper creams were observed stored properly and with current permission forms. Each child had individual cribs that were labeled. Feeding schedules were completed and posted as required. Teachers were observed caring for individual needs and providing a nurturing environment. Arrival/departure times were not documented in Space 1. It was explained that children were checked in on ProCare in the office. I explained that times should be documented as children arrive and depart each day and the most accurate documentation would be in the classroom if no one was in the office to observe children arrive and depart each day. Toddlers were observed participating in free choice activities. Required information was observed current and posted. In Space 8 the activity plan was posted on the parent board across the hall from the classroom. The activity plan should be posted in the classroom for teachers to reference throughout the day. Preschool children were observed participating in free choice activities as well as large group story time. Teachers were engaged while children played and asked open-ended questions as stories were read. Evidence of curriculum was observed. The baseboard to cabinets in Spaces 4 and 8 were damaged from a water leak. We discussed removing the baseboards or installing rubber baseboards to cover the damage. A window beside the changing table in Space 4 was observed with peeling paint around the sills. The posted menu reflected what was served. Milk was provided by the facility. Specialty milk was provided by parents for several children. I recommended pouring specialty milk in cups rather than sending the entire carton to the classroom to maintain the required temperature. The facility’s milk was poured into a serving pitcher and discarded in the classroom after lunch. Medication permissions and medical action plans were monitored and met compliance. Playgrounds were monitored today. The two’s playground was currently not being used due to tree and gate damage due to the Tropical Storm Debbie. Ms. Sharpe stated the facility submitted the work order through insurance. I observed vines and netting along the rear fence of the preschool playground posing a hazard to children. Staff/child ratio was maintained and adequate supervision was observed. The last sanitation inspection was conducted 5/23/24 and the facility received a superior rating. The last fire inspection was completed 8/7/24. Fire drills were conducted and documented as required. Playground inspections were completed and maintained as required. A sampling of staff files were reviewed and one (1) new staff file was monitored. A sampling of children’s files were monitored.

The child care provider is expected to maintain all applicable child care requirements at all times. The provider will send me a compliance letter that includes the violation item number and an explanation of how each of today’s violations were corrected. Corrections must be received by me on or before Tuesday, December 5, 2023 to the email address listed below or the provider may mail corrections to me at P.O. Box 1967, Huntersville, NC 28078 understanding the letter of compliance should be delivered not submitted by the due date. Failure to correct the violations and send the written statement by the due date listed above may result in an unannounced follow-up visit being conducted or an administrative action may be recommended. Based on Child Care Rule 10A NCAC 09 Section .2200, the Division of Child Development may take administrative action against the license and/or impose civil penalties based on the failure of the operator to correct any documented violations within the established time period. Technical Assistance/General Comments: Resuming Rated License Reassessment: The hold harmless legislation was extended and signed into law on Monday June 12th, 2023. This legislation allows facilities to remain at their current star level without a reassessment until June 30, 2024 and when reassessed it reduces the education evaluation requirements for lead teachers from 75% to 50% until June of 2026. To prepare for the reassessment process, DCDEE has developed a cohort system. There are three cohorts, and each include a preparation year and a reassessment year. While the first reassessment year will not begin until July 1, 2024, the preparation year for cohort one began July 1, 2023. Your facility is in cohort one. I recommend you consider completing the following tasks and activities that will help prepare you for your reassessment year, which will be sometime between July 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025. If possible, we will align the reassessment with your annual compliance visit timeframe. • Have all staff update WORKS accounts to reflect all currently completed coursework (DCDEE-WORKS) • Determine whether you wish to have Environment Rating Scale (ERS) Assessments [ITERS-R, ECERS-R, SACERS-U] conducted • Request technical assistance with your child care consultant and local partners • Participate in local CCR&R and NCPC quality related training/workshops (CCRR Information) • Reach out to your local Community College to discuss educational opportunities • Review NCRLAP website ERS resources (www.NCRLAP.org). To help review ERS requirements and think carefully about the current characteristics and practices in your program and classrooms, check out the Thinking More worksheets. A worksheet is available for each subscale of each rating scale. • Consider requesting an ERS assessment (free of charge) during the preparation year. Remember the scores can be used in a variety of ways o ERS assessments can be requested during the preparation year and scores can be used as guidance to enhance program quality o If desired, assessment scores can be used during the preparation year if the operator wants to move forward with a rated license reassessment o Assessment scores can be saved to use during the reassessment year o Facilities can request another ERS assessment (free of charge) in your reassessment year for any ERS assessment scoring less than a 5.0 If you have questions, please contact me. I look forward to helping you through this rated license reassessment process. The following was emailed to you today: - NCRLAP Preparation Year: Activities and Ideas for Cohorts 1, 2, & 3. - NCRLAP Quick Reference: RLA Process One Sheet - The facility shares space with the church. It was recommended to conduct compliance checks in the sanctuary prior to children attending chapel on Wednesday and on Monday in classrooms used by the church on Sunday. - Ensure all permission forms that have a space for parents to circle “yes” or “no” are completed.

The child care provider is expected to maintain all applicable child care requirements at all times. The provider will send me a compliance letter that includes the violation item number and an explanation of how each of today’s violations were corrected. Corrections must be received by me on or before Tuesday, December 5, 2023 to the email address listed below or the provider may mail corrections to me at P.O. Box 1967, Huntersville, NC 28078 understanding the letter of compliance should be delivered not submitted by the due date. Failure to correct the violations and send the written statement by the due date listed above may result in an unannounced follow-up visit being conducted or an administrative action may be recommended. Based on Child Care Rule 10A NCAC 09 Section .2200, the Division of Child Development may take administrative action against the license and/or impose civil penalties based on the failure of the operator to correct any documented violations within the established time period. Technical Assistance/General Comments: Resuming Rated License Reassessment: The hold harmless legislation was extended and signed into law on Monday June 12th, 2023. This legislation allows facilities to remain at their current star level without a reassessment until June 30, 2024 and when reassessed it reduces the education evaluation requirements for lead teachers from 75% to 50% until June of 2026. To prepare for the reassessment process, DCDEE has developed a cohort system. There are three cohorts, and each include a preparation year and a reassessment year. While the first reassessment year will not begin until July 1, 2024, the preparation year for cohort one began July 1, 2023. Your facility is in cohort one. I recommend you consider completing the following tasks and activities that will help prepare you for your reassessment year, which will be sometime between July 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025. If possible, we will align the reassessment with your annual compliance visit timeframe. • Have all staff update WORKS accounts to reflect all currently completed coursework (DCDEE-WORKS) • Determine whether you wish to have Environment Rating Scale (ERS) Assessments [ITERS-R, ECERS-R, SACERS-U] conducted • Request technical assistance with your child care consultant and local partners • Participate in local CCR&R and NCPC quality related training/workshops (CCRR Information) • Reach out to your local Community College to discuss educational opportunities • Review NCRLAP website ERS resources (www.NCRLAP.org). To help review ERS requirements and think carefully about the current characteristics and practices in your program and classrooms, check out the Thinking More worksheets. A worksheet is available for each subscale of each rating scale. • Consider requesting an ERS assessment (free of charge) during the preparation year. Remember the scores can be used in a variety of ways o ERS assessments can be requested during the preparation year and scores can be used as guidance to enhance program quality o If desired, assessment scores can be used during the preparation year if the operator wants to move forward with a rated license reassessment o Assessment scores can be saved to use during the reassessment year o Facilities can request another ERS assessment (free of charge) in your reassessment year for any ERS assessment scoring less than a 5.0 If you have questions, please contact me. I look forward to helping you through this rated license reassessment process.
