Name of Operation: FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH OF CLAYTON C D C Facility ID: 51000614 Consultant: LEIGH MCKENZIE-LEE Operation Type: Center Case Number: 0426-216L Visit Date: 4/23/2026 Number Present: 28 Completed Date: 4/23/2026 Age: From 0 To 5 Total Minutes: 85 Time In: 03:15 PM Time Out: 04:40 PM Time In: Time Out: List to Use: Center Type Of Visit: Complaint Visit Announced/Unannounced: Unannounced The purpose of today's unannounced visit was to investigate allegations of non-compliance related to staff/child ratio, supervision, nutrition and criminal background checks for new hires received by DCDEE on 4-14-26. The allegations were shared with the assistant administrator and she was given an opportunity to ask questions and provide information. In addition, I also reviewed the four menus used on rotation for the facility. The following was determined based on the information provided and on observations made during the visit: Staff/child ratios and supervision were monitored during the visit. You stated that you had not received any complaints from parents or staff members regarding non-compliance with staff/child ratio or supervision requirements. You stated that you were not aware of any incidents of non-compliance with staff/child ratio or supervision requirements. Based on observations made and on information provided, the allegations pertaining to staff/child ratio and supervision were not confirmed and violations were not documented. Upon review of the menus used on a four week rotation, I noted that only one component is typically served for afternoon snack. I observed that water is most often served as the beverage and while child care requirements stipulate that drinking water be made available to the children, water cannot be counted as a component for meals or snacks. When serving items such as crackers, vanilla wafers, chex mix or rice crispy treats, you are required to served an additional component to meet Meal Patterns for Children in Childcare. In addition, I also observed that Veggie Straws are served periodically for afternoon snack. Veggie Straws have little or no nutritional value and therefore cannot be served routinely. Lastly, I did not observed any items marked as whole grain. The children must be routinely served whole grains to meet child care requirements. Based on these observations, the allegation pertaining to nutrition was confirmed and two violations were documented. You stated that four new staff members were recently hired. I verified that each of these new staff members obtained a qualification letter prior to employment from the DCDEE Background Check Unit. Therefore, the allegation pertaining to criminal background checks was not confirmed and a violation was not documented. Violation Number Comment Rule 501 Meals/snacks did not comply with the Meal Patterns for Children in Child Care Programs. Only one component has routinely been served for afternoon snack. Whole grain items were not served daily as required. 10A NCAC 09 .0901(a) 511 Foods and beverages with little or no nutritional value were available often and not just for special occasions. Veggie straws are routinely served for afternoon snack. .0901(i) During the visit, we reviewed each of your menus and I identified the areas of concern. We discussed components that could be added for the afternoon snacks that do not meet Meal Pattern requirements and I identified the item that must be removed due to little or no nutritional value. We also reviewed the menus to determine where you can incorporate whole grains into a meal or snack each day. Meal Pattern guidelines and tools for creating menus that meet all requirements can be found on our website, under the provider documents. We also discussed the option of enrolling in the USDA Food Program as they can assist you with meal planning. In addition, someone with the Food Program would conduct visits to monitor the food and beverages served, as well as the amount served based on age. Participation in the food program can also help to off-set your expenses for food service. You can search online for additional information regarding the USDA Food Program. ****Child care licensing requirements are established to ensure a safe and healthy child care environment.

Name of Operation: FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH OF CLAYTON C D C Facility ID: 51000614 Consultant: LEIGH MCKENZIE-LEE Operation Type: Center Case Number: 1024-167L Visit Date: 10/28/2024 Number Present: 39 Completed Date: 10/28/2024 Age: From 0 To 4 Total Minutes: 75 Time In: 11:00 AM Time Out: 12:15 PM Time In: Time Out: List to Use: Center Type Of Visit: Complaint Visit Announced/Unannounced: Unannounced The purpose of today's unannounced visit was to investigate the following allegation of non-compliance: There is a concern that children are being care for in a space that is not approved for child care. The allegation was shared with you and you were given an opportunity to ask questions and provide information. The following was determined based on the information provided and on observations made during the visit: You stated that when you began employment at the center, the children one year old and under who were still present at 5:30 pm were brought to the office for care so that the staff members in the classrooms could clean and close our their room prior to your 5:45 pm closing time. You stated that typically this was only one child less than one year of age. When asked about the frequency at which she was cared for in the office, you stated that it could be as few as two days per week up to five days per week. Administrative offices are not approved for use by children. Therefore the allegation was confirmed and a violation was documented. You stated that this child's parent expressed concern about care being provided in your office and that as a result, this practice was changed and all children remain in a classroom until they are picked up. You stated that the classroom for infants and the classroom for two year old children remain open and that children are combined in these classrooms to await pick up so that the staff members in the other classrooms can close their rooms. Since this practice has now been changed and children are no longer being cared for in either administrative office, the violation was marked as corrected during the visit. The classrooms for children less than one year of age and one year old children were monitored as these were the age groups identified as receiving care in the office. In the classroom for children less than one year of age, six children were present with three staff members. In the classroom for one year old children eight children were present with three staff members. No other classrooms were monitored and the staff/child ratio worksheet was not completed. Violation Number Comment Rule 209 Children used space that was not approved. Care was routinely provided in the administrator's office, which is not approved for use by children. GS 110-91(1)&(4-5) During the visit, we discussed the safety concerns for children cared for in an administrative office. Often times these spaces contain items that children do not need access to; for example: tape dispensers, scissors, pencil sharpeners and staff member's bags. In addition, routine care furnishings for feeding, diapering and diaper changing, toileting and handwashing are not available in the offices. Lastly, the children do not have access to required toys and materials while in the offices. I recommended that you create a written policy regarding care in the administrative offices and provide each staff member with a copy. The violation was marked as corrected during the visit; therefore, a compliance letter was not required as a follow up to the visit. A follow up visit may be conducted to monitor compliance with child care requirements. Please contact me at 919-819-9301 or at leigh.mckenzie-lee@dhhs.nc.gov if I can be of assistance.

The center's EPR Plan was not review with nine of the new staff members. .0607(f) 1876 A child was yelled at, shamed, humiliated, frightened, threatened or bullied. On 5-29-24, a staff member was observed speaking to a two year old child in an angry and inappropriate manner stating "you know you don't scream like that." .1803(a)(9) While reviewing files for the new staff members, I observed a written statement completed by a staff member in the classroom for two year old children regarding an interaction between her co-worker and a child in the classroom. According to the statement, on 5-29-24, while the children were standing in line waiting to go outside, a male child in the classroom let out a "small but somewhat loud play scream." The staff member stated that her co-worker "pulled him aggressively by his arm and sat him forcefully into the chair, angerly saying 'you know you don't scream like that'." The staff member stated that as she was leaving, she noticed that he was rubbing his bottom (butt bone area) while she (the co-teacher) was scolding him. Upon review of this statement, I discussed this with the assistant administrator. She verified that the staff member who wrote the statement did so at her request after she shared these concerns verbally. The assistant administrator stated that she spoke with the other staff member who stated that she did not think she handled the situation or the child inappropriately. The assistant administrator stated that the child was still in care and that his parent(s) were not notified of the incident. The assistant administrator verified that the center has a policy regarding inappropriate discipline and that the consequences begin with a verbal warning, then written warning, followed by termination. She stated that based on the information provided verbally and in the written statement by the staff member that observed the incident, this staff member was given a verbal warning regarding how she handled and spoke to the child. Two violations were documented as a result, including one for handling a child roughly and one for speaking to a child in a frightening manner. Violations of this nature are particularly serious and must be addressed immediately. I recommended that you review your policies pertaining to discipline with all staff members and have them sign a statement verifying receipt. I also suggested that you include the consequences for not following the policy with all staff. In addition, I recommended that in the future, when situations like this are reported to you, the child's parent(s) should be notified of the allegations and outcome. During the visit, we discussed the importance of also reporting these types of incidents to our Intake Unit as a self-report. Violations of this nature may lead to the issuance of an administrative action; you will be notified in writing by mail if DCDEE determines that this warrants further action. As a new administrator from out of state, I suggested that a rules review may be beneficial to you. I will reach out our Lead Consultant, Becky Williams, and get back with you regarding possible dates to attend a review with her. Based on the violations observed during the visit, I recommended that you utilize the checklist for staff, children and program files to assist you. These checklist include all required documents, when they are due and when they must be updated. I observed the most current version of the child care requirements on your desk and you stated that you were in the process of reviewing the document. I suggested that you also review the General Statues and sanitation requirements for child care. The most up to date versions of each of these can be found on our website at https://ncchildcare.ncdhhs.gov/ under the provider tab. ****Child care licensing requirements are established to ensure a safe and healthy child care environment.

According to the statement, on 5-29-24, while the children were standing in line waiting to go outside, a male child in the classroom let out a "small but somewhat loud play scream." The staff member stated that her co-worker "pulled him aggressively by his arm and sat him forcefully into the chair, angerly saying 'you know you don't scream like that'." The staff member stated that as she was leaving, she noticed that he was rubbing his bottom (butt bone area) while she (the co-teacher) was scolding him. Upon review of this statement, I discussed this with the assistant administrator. She verified that the staff member who wrote the statement did so at her request after she shared these concerns verbally. The assistant administrator stated that she spoke with the other staff member who stated that she did not think she handled the situation or the child inappropriately. The assistant administrator stated that the child was still in care and that his parent(s) were not notified of the incident. The assistant administrator verified that the center has a policy regarding inappropriate discipline and that the consequences begin with a verbal warning, then written warning, followed by termination. She stated that based on the information provided verbally and in the written statement by the staff member that observed the incident, this staff member was given a verbal warning regarding how she handled and spoke to the child. Two violations were documented as a result, including one for handling a child roughly and one for speaking to a child in a frightening manner. Violations of this nature are particularly serious and must be addressed immediately. I recommended that you review your policies pertaining to discipline with all staff members and have them sign a statement verifying receipt. I also suggested that you include the consequences for not following the policy with all staff. In addition, I recommended that in the future, when situations like this are reported to you, the child's parent(s) should be notified of the allegations and outcome. During the visit, we discussed the importance of also reporting these types of incidents to our Intake Unit as a self-report. Violations of this nature may lead to the issuance of an administrative action; you will be notified in writing by mail if DCDEE determines that this warrants further action. As a new administrator from out of state, I suggested that a rules review may be beneficial to you. I will reach out our Lead Consultant, Becky Williams, and get back with you regarding possible dates to attend a review with her. Based on the violations observed during the visit, I recommended that you utilize the checklist for staff, children and program files to assist you.
