I was greeted by Iyanna Morrison, Program Coordinator, and I stated the reason for my visit. I was introduced to Cara Cameron, Group Leader. You, Rosa Swinton, Administrator, arrived during today’s visit. This facility was issued a temporary license on August 11, 2025, with the following restrictions: daytime care only, children in care on ground level only, school age children only and cares for children up to 14 years of age. The Secretary of State website was checked today, and the owner, Dynamic Learning Academy LLC, is current and active in the NC Business Registry. The following were posted: Temporary License, Classroom Staff to Child Ratio charts, Safe Arrival and Departure Procedures, NC Summary of Child Care Law poster, Emergency Medical Care Plan and Evacuation Plans. The children were observed during arrival procedures, working on homework and free choice activities indoors. Ms. Morrison was observed bringing the labeled activity containers out of space #1 and into space #4. She stated that the licensed program only uses space #4 Monday-Thursday because of extra-curricular clubs/activities that are provided by the private school and staff. The students were also observed during hand-washing routines, mealtime and gross motor activities indoors. We discussed that there are 10 children enrolled at this time and four were present during today’s visit. I reminded the staff that space #2 has a maximum capacity of 10 children at 25 SF. Supervision, staff/child ratio, grouping of children, the use of approved space, and permit restrictions were monitored during today’s visit. The last monthly fire drill that was documented on the drill log was conducted on October 9, 2025. You stated that monthly drills were conducted November and December and the information was on the Monthly Principal Fire Inspection and Drill form. This document is not the required form and does not have the required information: time of drill, amount of time the drill took, number of people present, what was the weather conditions. Ms. Morrison and Ms. Swinton completed the EPR training on November 18, 2025. The EPR Plan will need to be completed within four months of completing the training. There have been two new staff hired since my last visit and their files were monitored during today’s visit. We discussed that "Child care provider" as defined by G.S. 110-90.2(a)(2) includes the staff that transport the children. Please submit to me the update Staff and Training Worksheet no later than the end of the business day of January 13th. We discussed the importance of keeping this document updated at all times and have it available for the DCDEE staff to monitor. Rated License Discussion – I received the “Application for Assessment for a Rated License for Centers” on December 10, 2025, and program is choosing Pathway #2-Classroom and Instructional Quality. You have checked that this program will meet enhanced staff/child ratios. The following have been reviewed for QRIS Pathway 2: 1) I received the QRIS Staff Information and Education Worksheet on December 8, 2025, and it was updated on January 5, 2026, when I received all the staffs’ WORKS status letters and monitored the WORKS database. This program is eligible for five stars education standards. 2) I received and reviewed the Family and Community Engagement Standards Child Care Centers / Centers Located in a Residence form on December 8, 2025. In addition to the foundational practices required to meet the family and community engagement standards (CC RULE .3209) at the two-star level this program has chosen to meet two communication options, one engagement and leadership option and two educational opportunity options. Please make sure to keep documentation on how the family and community engagement standards are being met. 3) We discussed that staff and administration will need to complete the Individual Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) Plan and submit copies to me no later than January 13, 2026. We reviewed the document during today’s visit. 4) The facility CQI Plan has been created, and I received a copy of the plan on December 10,2025. The document was signed during today’s visit. 5) You stated that the approved curriculum that is used is Creative Curriculum. An approved formative assessment is not required at this time because this program is an out of school program only. You stated that you are in the process of purchasing the curriculum. Please make sure to send me documentation that the curriculum was purchased. 6) Coaching/training options for administrators *We reviewed CC RULE .3205(f)(10)(11) pertaining to coaching training options. You stated that you are in the process of completing the Talent Development and Advanced Studies Program through Charlotte/Mecklenburg Schools. You stated that you will earn more than 0.5 continuing education units in addition to your required number of on-going training hours needed. Please add this to your individual CQI plan. We reviewed the Pathway 2-Classroom and Instructional Quality Star Level Assessment for Child Care Centers. We discussed that the following would need to be submitted to me no later than the end of the business day on Tuesday, January 13th: 1) Documentation that the approved curriculum has been purchased and the plan that is in place to ensure you complete training on the curriculum. Documentation will need to be placed in your file. The star rating of this facility will be determined after January 13, 2026, when I receive and review the documentation of the purchased approved curriculum and the individual CQI plans for all staff. Star Rated License Child Care programs are expected to achieve and maintain an eighteen-month compliance history score of at least seventy-five percent at all times [NC GS 110-90(4)(d)]. After today's visit the facility's compliance history is at 95%. The following violations were observed today: Violation Number Comment Rule 805 Fire drills were not practiced monthly and/or the drill record was incomplete. The last documented fire drill on the log was conducted on 10/9/25. .0604(t); .0302(d)(5) 1301 Center did not maintain a record of daily attendance. Attendance for Monday, 1/5, was not completed on the Monthly Attendance Report. GS 110-91(9) 1890 Each staff member did not have the required medical report, proof of tuberculosis test or screening and/or completed health questionnaire in a medical file, maintained separately from the staff member's individual personnel file. A staff member's medical information was located in their personnel file. .0701(d) TECHNICAL ASSITANCE: -We discussed that monthly fire drills need to be documented on the DCDEE Emergency Drill Report. It is best to document the required information as soon as the fire drill is completed so that all the informatic is documented and accurate. -We discussed that all staffs 'health information including but not limited to the TB results, Health Questionnaire and Medical Report needs to be placed in separate files from the personnel files. It may be helpful to set up to separate files as soon as a staff member is hired. CONSULTATION: -Staff stated that it is a challenge to set up when they use space #2 because it is used as a classroom during the school hours and the school's students don't leave the classroom until 3:00 which is the time the afterschool program begins. We discussed coming up with a routine in which the activities can be placed in space #2 if that is the space being used. -Ms. Cameron and I reviewed the activity plan and we discussed being more specific about activities and avoiding "free choice" as an activity because the students always have this as an option. -As stated in G.S. 110-90.2 & .2703(r) child care operators are to notify the Division of any new child care providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. Effective immediately, you will need to obtain a Business NCID and complete Provider Portal training in Moodle at https://www.dcdee.moodle.nc.gov/course/view.php?id=119. Once the training has been completed and access has been given, you must verify your facility roster to ensure current staff are noted on the roster. This information should be updated in ABCMS in an ongoing basis as staff members are hired and when their employment is terminated. This satisfies the requirement to notify the Division of new child care providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. Should you need assistance please contact the Criminal Background Check Unit at (919) 814-8401 and someone will assist you. -We discussed that the family and community engagement standards chosen will be monitored during unannounced visits. It is important to keep good documentation. We discussed the educational opportunity option is a good example. You may want to have a document that you review with Lead Teachers during the onboarding process discussing the paid planning time. 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 January 20, 2026, I must receive a written, dated, and signed compliance letter that describes accurately and in detail how and when the violations were corrected. If sufficient information is not received by the due date, a follow-up visit may be completed.
