Name of Operation: THE KINGS KIDS Facility ID: 92003930 Consultant: KIMBERLY WIMBERLY Operation Type: Family CC Home Case Number: Visit Date: 7/17/2023 Number Present: 4 Completed Date: 7/17/2023 Age: From 1 To 4 Total Minutes: 150 Time In: 09:15 AM Time Out: 11:45 AM Time In: Time Out: List to Use: Family CC Home Type Of Visit: Temp Time Period Announced/Unannounced: Unannounced The purpose of today's visit was to monitor your program for compliance with applicable child care requirements during the second temporary time period visit. Beatrice King, owner/operator, assisted me with the visit. This facility was issued a temporary license on 3-27-23 with a restriction of daytime care only. During this visit, I walked through the child care area, bathroom and outdoor play area. The FCCH was assessed for supervision, staff/child ratio, and health and safety requirements. Children were observed engaged in free play activities in the child care room which is located down the hall to the right. As of today’s visit, there are 4 children enrolled at the FCCH. Operator, program, and all children’s records were monitored during my visit today. I did not see documentation for proof of completion of an outdoor playground inspection for June 2023. We discussed that if you want to save on paper, you can just review and sign at the bottom of the Outdoor Playground Inspection form monthly and make note of any items needing attention. I also observed that as of today’s visit, you have not completed your Recognizing and Responding to Child Maltreatment training (preventchildabuse.org) that was due by 6-27-23. We discussed the importance of using the checklists that were given to you during pre-licensing to assure that all trainings and deadlines are met. Transportation requirements were monitored during today’s visit. Ms. King drives a 2008 Honda Pilot SUV with license plate ECX 9366. During my review of the transportation vehicle, there were no visual issues. Tires were observed to be within the guidelines and all seatbelts worked. Don’t forget that your tags are due for renewal no later than 7-31-23. Auto insurance was current and on file. Please review the rules for transportation in Child Care Rules .1719 and .1723 to assure you are meeting all requirements. You will need to add a first aid kit and a fire extinguisher prior to use. Ms. King did state to me today that on 7-13-23 she did take the children on a field trip to the movies. Permission slips were on file for this field trip and all other paperwork was on file pertaining to the transportation vehicle. This information was reviewed and discussed with you during Pre-Licensing. Ms. King stated that as of today, she has not obtained any official transcripts to submit to Workforce Section of DCDEE pertaining to the rated license assessment. As I reminded you today, on your next visit, we will be conducted a rated license assessment and you will be assessed based on where you are on that visit so if you have any college coursework that you would like to submit, please obtain those official transcripts ASAP and let me know so that I can submit them. Two violations regarding program records and operator records were observed out of compliance during my visit today. 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 7-31-23, I must receive a written, dated, and signed compliance letter that describes accurately and in detail, how and when the violations were corrected. Please be aware any information submitted by you is considered legal documentation. If it is determined the information provided in the letter is not true, this may be considered falsification of information. If sufficient information is not received by the due date, a follow-up visit may be completed. Mail or email the information to: Po Box 609, Knightdale, NC 27545 or Kim.Wimberly@dhhs.nc.gov. If you email the compliance letter, it must be sent from the email address registered with the DCDEE (this serves as your signature) and the following information must be included: name, position, facility name, and facility ID. Violation Number Comment Rule 714 Monthly check for hazards on the outdoor play area was not completed using a form supplied by the Division.

I encourage you to go back and review your visit summaries prior to today on where to locate these trainings on MOODLE on the DCDEE website. *You must take the required Emergency Preparedness and Response Training (EPR) no later than 3-27-24. Don’t forget you will have 4 months after completion of this training to complete your EPR Plan. This plan must be on file for review. Your third and final temporary time period visit will be conducted in the near future and as stated earlier, we will assess your FCCH for a rated license. Please keep me posted if there are going to be any closures at your FCCH. If the operator fails to correct any documented violations within the established time period, the Division of Child Development and Early Education may deny, suspend, terminate, or revoke any permit to operate (10A NCAC 09 .2000).
