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.

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. The information should be updated in ABCMS on an ongoing basis as staff members are hired and when employment is terminated. This satisfies the requirement to notify the Division of new child providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days.

Mail or email the information to: Rona Davis Child Care Consultant P. O. Box 1218 Raeford, NC 28376 Technical Assistance/Discussions/Reminders: Observation Suggestions: Offer a range of opportunities for children to express their ideas in the context of both planned and unplanned activities. Provide a balance of adult and child-directed activities where children can make guided decisions based on teacher’s clearly identified expectations (example, where to sit at circle time). Plan routines and experiences that allow children to be successful with little support. Tell children why and what they are going to do before they begin to engage in activities and summarize what they did after they are finished. For example, before beginning the rug activity involving the alphabet, tell children that they are going to learn about the first letter of their name. After the activity, ask the children which letter does their first name begin with. Shelter-in-place and/or lockdown drills: A violation was cited for not conducting shelter-in-place and lockdown drills every three months. The last shelter-in-place or lockdown drill was completed June 18, 2024. To maintain a safe and healthy environment, a shelter-in-place or lockdown drill shall be conducted every three months. Refer to child care rule 10A NCAC 09 .0102. We discussed strategies of putting the month (every three months) on the fire drill documentation log and scheduling drills on a calendar. Surfacing: We discussed play equipment taller than eighteen inches in height from the ground must have at least six feet of surfacing extended beyond the external limits of the equipment (Black climber, green slide, black see-saw, yellow wagon, and green bus) Refer to child care rule 10A NCAC 09 .0605(i)(1-2). (Outdooring Learning Environment): Checking the depth and resiliency of surfacing material should be done regularly. Sand becomes compacted with use and weather; rake/till the sand and measure to ensure it is at least 6 inches in depth in and around the fall zones. Medical Statement/TB: A violation was cited for one staff member not having a medical statement or TB test results prior to employment. Remember, new staff members will need a medical statement and TB test results prior to employment. Refer to child care rule 10A NCAC 09 .0701(a). Reminders: Six weeks of orientation is due for one staff member (D.A.) by 2/24/25. Recognizing and Responding to Suspicions of Child Maltreatment is due for one staff member (S.J.) by 2/14/25.

Recognizing and Responding to Child Abuse and Maltreatment A violation was cited for one staff member (C.B.) not completing Recognizing and Responding to Child Abuse and Maltreatment. Child care staff are expected to be well informed about child abuse and neglect issues and adequately trained to prevent and recognize potential maltreatment. The “Recognizing and Responding to Child Abuse and Maltreatment” training must be completed within 90 days of hire. Documentation of training must be kept on file for review. Email me a copy of the certificate with the compliance letter. Observation Suggestions: A language-rich environment: helping infants learn to communicate themselves and communicate their needs is important because it helps them gain the foundational skills on which all later language is built. Some strategies are: • Talking to infants in complete and descriptive sentences, narrating what you’re doing and what’s happening in the classroom; telling infants the names of objects they see. • Talking to infants with the intention of getting them to voice a response, making sounds, repeating their sounds, and asking them questions. • Telling infants what you “heard” when they use facial expressions, gestures, words, or sounds to communicate; showing infants how conversations work by pausing and making eye contact when you talk to them. • Read to the babies, show them the pictures in the book, point and name the pictures in the book. Teach children how to take care of books. • Include props when reading to children (puppets, flannel boards) • Self and parallel talk: • Self-Talk: This is when you are using short sentences to talk about what you are seeing, hearing, or doing when you are with a child. For example, when you are diapering you could say “Ms. Margaret is going to change your diaper. I am opening the tape on one side, then the other side and now I am going to use a wipe to clean you. Doesn’t it feel good to be clean? Let’s put a clean diaper on and wash our hands. Now Ms. Margaret must clean and disinfect the table. Have you ever been in the store and seen a person talking and talking to themselves until you realize that they have a baby strapped to their chest? That’s self-talk! Now, this self-talk for some people comes naturally and for others, they need to make an effort to do it. • Parallel talk: Parallel talk is talking about what a child is seeing, hearing, or doing. So, when a child is playing with blocks you might say “Wow! You just built a tower! Oh, you have the blue block. Oh, let’s see how many blocks there are, one, two, three blocks!” Notice in parallel talk, you are not asking questions of the child but rather are just modeling language. The DCDEE has a new initiative – Natural Outdoor Learning Initiative. Through this initiative, we hope to increase knowledge and confidence for everyone in developing and implementing best practices to support the creation, programming, and safe use of naturalized outdoor spaces in child care facilities. You can learn more by visiting the NLI website, where you will also find many resources, including an updated Toolkit designed to help you enhance your outdoor learning environment.

Many times, the smell is very strong, so he is changed immediately. All children in diapers are checked within one to two hours. They make sure all children are dry upon arrival and departure. The two children mentioned in the allegations are picked up from the facility by their grandmother approximately 6:00 -7:00 pm. The provider was told that mom picks the children up from their grandmother after 9:00 pm. The mother told the operator that the children did not drink milk, so the staff had been giving the children water for a substitution. There were no health assessments on file for both children and they were not on an allergy list. There was a summary from a doctor’s visit that noted the children had no known allergies. It was also noted, “Possible cow’s milk allergies” for both children. The children’s last day of attendance was July 20, 2023. The mom called the operator on August 8, 2023 to inform her that the children will be going to another child care facility. Based on the information gathered and observations made, the allegation of violations of child care requirements pertaining to diapers not being changed when soiled is unsubstantiated. Based on the information gathered and observations made, the allegation of violations of child care requirements pertaining to a child care provider not providing the required beverage is substantiated. An additional violation was cited for not having a current fire inspection and two children not having a medical statement on file. At the completion of the visit, the visit summary was reviewed with Z. Muldrow. The following violations were observed. Violation Number Comment Rule 106 Operator has not scheduled and obtained a fire inspection within 12 months of the previous inspection.
