Children were observed adequately supervised, staff-child ratios maintained, and adequate approved space was used during today’s visit. Your facility operates with a GS 110-106 Notice of Compliance. Today children were engaged in free play, group time, transitions, play in the gym, handwashing, and a science experiment. Toys and equipment in all spaces were observed to be of sufficient quantity and developmentally appropriate. I monitored general safety throughout the center. All over the counter and prescription medications were monitored. Inspections/Drills/Logs Sanitation Inspection- September 11, 2025, with a Superior rating and 15 demerits. Fire Inspection- June 24, 2025 Playground Inspection- October 17, 2025 Fire Drill- September 30, 2025 Emergency Drill-September 26, 2025 Incident Log- Completed as required Water/Lead/Asbestos- OK Transportation and playgrounds were monitored during the annual compliance visit. Three staff have been hired since the ACV. I monitored their complete file. I monitored all staff for valid Criminal Records Checks, Recognizing and Responding to Suspicions of Child Maltreatment, ITS SIDS (if applicable), BSAC (if applicable), and CPR/FA. Your signature on all forms served and will serve as verification the information provided was accurate and complete. The following violations were observed and cited during this visit: Violation Number Comment Rule 858 Plastic bags, materials that could be torn apart and toy parts small enough to be swallowed were accessible to children under three years of age.

One staff with a hire date of 10/21/25 did not have a signed policy in their file. .0608(d)(1-4) Technical Assistance was provided in the following areas: 1. Gloves/plastic and other hazardous items are required to be stored five feet above the floor. We discussed putting the gloves on the shelf in the cabinet behind the changing tables. Gloves were stored on the changing tables; you corrected this by putting all the gloves in the cabinets. 2. Staff are required to have a signed Shaken Baby and Abusive Head Trauma on the first day of work, prior to working with children. Ensure that staff sign time sensitive items on the first day of employment. This was corrected by having the staff sign the policy.

I observed the current menu, Sanitation placard, Emergency Numbers, Emergency Medical Care Plan, staff-child ratio worksheets, First Aid poster, tobacco free policy signage, evacuation plans, posted as required. Your facility operates with a Notice of Compliance and is exempt from having daily schedules and activity plans; however, I observed current activity plans and schedules posted in each of the classrooms. Today, children were adequately supervised, staff-child ratios maintained, and adequate approved space use maintained during today’s visit. Children were engaged in free play, group time, transitions, outdoor play, and handwashing. I observed toys and equipment in all spaces to be of sufficient quantity and developmentally appropriate. I monitored general safety throughout the center. I monitored the equipment and materials in the three outdoor play spaces. I observed the outdoor space supplied with a variety of age-appropriate equipment and shaded areas. I observed the fences to be of sufficient height. All topical ointments and sunscreens were monitored. There are no prescription medications or Medical Action Plans currently on site.

Your signature on all forms served and will serve as verification the information provided was accurate and complete. The following violations were observed and cited during this visit: Violation Number Comment Rule 106 Operator has not scheduled and obtained a fire inspection within 12 months of the previous inspection. Operator did not submit the original approved report to DCDEE within one week of the inspection visit on a form provided by the Division. The last fire inspection was January of 2024. 10A NCAC 09 .0304(a) 842 A drug or medication was administered without written authorization and/or instructions from a child's parent or authorized health professional. In Spaces 6 & 8, there were diaper creams or ointments that did not have a permission to administer form, or the form had expired. 10A NCAC 09 .0803(1)(a & b) 1048 All staff did not successfully complete certification in First Aid appropriate to the age of children in care. Verification of staff completion of First Aid training from an approved training organization was not in the staff file.

Verification of staff completion of the CPR course from an approved training organization was not in the staff file. One staff with a hire date of 5/21/25 did not have a valid CPR certification on file. .1102(d) Technical Assistance was provided in the following areas: 1. Utilize calendar on the computer or phone to document when staff are due for time sensitive training. This will ensure they are registered and receive before the due date. 2. You will need to follow up with the fire inspector to schedule a visit. I suggest calling the inspector 4-6 weeks before the due date so if there are issues which need repair, they can be completed prior to the date the inspection is due. 3. Teachers can put reminders on their closet doors of when creams/ointments expire and when the permission to administer forms expire. This way they will see the dates daily and will know when to have new forms completed or when to send home ointments. Consultation was provided in the following areas: ABCMS 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. The process of notifying the Division has changed and is now captured in ABCMS. This change has been in effect since February 2024. 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. No action is needed on your part if you have completed the reference training and are currently using the ABCMS Provider Portal to update information regarding new hires or residents. 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. The compliance of this rule will be monitored during your next visit. Please note, the hard copy of the Change of Information form will no longer be needed or accepted.

I monitored all staff for valid Criminal Records Checks, Recognizing and Responding to Suspicions of Child Maltreatment, ITS SIDS (if applicable), BSAC (if applicable), and CPR/FA. Your signature on all forms served and will serve as verification the information provided was accurate and complete. The following violations were observed and cited during this visit: Violation Number Comment Rule 842 A drug or medication was administered without written authorization and/or instructions from a child's parent or authorized health professional.
