All cots in spaces #1 and #2 did not have linen. Children were resting on cots with no linen. 15A NCAC 18A .2821(c) The violations must be corrected immediately. Mail or email a written, dated, and signed statement to me by 5:00 pm on October 30, 2025, describing how and when the violations were corrected and how the facility plans to maintain compliance in the future. If the compliance letter is not received by the due date, an additional visit will be conducted to verify that violations have been corrected. Mail or email the information to: Rona Davis Child Care Consultant P.O. Box 1218 Raeford, NC 28376 rona.davis@dhhs.nc.gov Facility Specific TA/Consultation/Reminders: QRIS Modernization Pathway: During today’s visit an overview of section .3200 of the child care rules was provided. Each of the following pathway options were discussed: Program Assessment Pathway, Classroom and Instructional Quality Pathway, and Accreditation and Head Start Pathway. Education requirements were also reviewed. Based on today’s conversation you will be pursuing the Classroom and Instructional Quality Pathway (2). You were given a copy of the Education Standards form for Teachers A violation was cited for space #1 and #2 being over capacity for approximately ten minutes during diaper changing and preparation for rest time. You stated that normally another teacher is present but had an appointment. Refer to child care rule GS 110-91(7) & .1401(f). I will return sometime within two weeks to verify compliance with capacities for each approved space. A violation was cited for not having linen on the children’s cots. You stated that you will be sure to put linen on the cots. Refer to child care rule 15A NCAC 18A .2821(c). We discussed possibly increasing your capacity to fifteen children. Contact zoning (City of Fayetteville) for approval. You would need approval in writing. If you are approved, email me a request to increase your capacity. Include the approval documentation. Observation Suggestions: Naptime Transitioning To enhance your nap time routine, allow children a few minutes on their cots before the lights are turned out. This allows children to transition from being very active to being very still. Your center might provide nap books or simple manipulative toys for children to explore independently for 5 minutes. In continuing with this enhancement to rest time, the teacher could put on a short audio story or soft music for children to listen to once the lights are dim. This allows the teacher to gather naptime books and tuck each child in to give them a nurturing send-off to rest time. Remember, some children rest better if they have something from home to cuddle.
