Vicki Walker, Lead Teacher, assisted me with today’s visit. Erin Pickard, Licensing Supervisor, accompanied me on today’s visit. Your program currently operates with a five-star license issued March 1, 2019, earning 7 points in the education component, 7 points in the program standards component and 1 quality point. Your program operates with the following restrictions: 1st shift (daytime care only), meets enhanced ratios, meets enhanced space, and reduced staff/child ratios by one per group. Your facility’s compliance history score was 92% as of September 9, 2024. Your program was also monitored for compliance with implementing an approved curriculum which is The Creative Curriculum as required for all four and five star licensed facilities where four-year-old children are enrolled. The last annual compliance visit was conducted October 25, 2023. The sanitation inspection was completed September 10, 2024, with a “Superior” classification. The last fire inspection was conducted February 28, 2024. I monitored the indoor and outdoor space. Children enrolled in space #300 were doing art, transitioning through whole group story time, handwashing snack and outside play. Snack was observed during today’s visit and included whole grain Tiger graham crackers, and 1% unflavored white milk. The NC Pre-K requirements in section .3000 of the child care rules were not monitored during today’s visit due to it being so early in the school year but will be monitored during the next monitoring visit for compliance. There was 1 emergency medication, 1 permission to administer form and 1 Medical Action Plan monitored during today’s visit. Staff files were monitored including 3 staff members and 3 substitutes. A random sampling of 2 children’s records were monitored including one NC PreK child’s file. All health and safety requirements were monitored during today’s visit. The following violations were observed. Violation Number Comment Rule 721 All equipment and furnishings were not in good repair. The stationary structure on the playground has rust and chipping paint. G.S. 110-91(6); .0601(b) 1867 The depth of the loose surfacing was not based on critical height of the equipment. The mulch on the playground is not of sufficient depth. .0605(k)(1-4) Technical Assistance: • The stationary structure on the playground has rust and chipping paint. As discussed, all outside play equipment should be free of rust, chipping paint and be clean and in good repair. I suggest that you utilize the playground inspections to identify and document the necessary repairs needed to the outside playground. Continue to contact the school’s maintenance department to ensure that the required repairs are always completed and remain in compliance. • The mulch on the playground is not of sufficient depth. As discussed, there should be a minimum of six inches of mulch within the fall zone. I suggest that mulch be added to the playground to ensure that the mulch surfacing is sufficient to remain in compliance with child care rules throughout the school year. Child Care programs are expected to achieve and maintain compliance at all times and are required by NC GS 110-90(4) (d) to achieve and maintain an eighteen-month compliance history score of at least seventy-five percent. Any violation(s) documented may impact the compliance history score. The violation(s) documented must be corrected immediately. On or before September 26, 2024, I must receive a written, dated, and signed compliance letter that describes accurately and in detail, how and when the violations were corrected.
